REMIXING CONTENT

  1. I understand "remixing content" to mean changing it from its original state.
  2. In other words, by removing or adding material to a form of media you can create something new. Photos, songs, artwork, and videos can all be remixed.
  3. An example of "remixing content" would be songs that are remixed. Lot's of popular songs get remixed all the time. People change the beats, speed them up, or add parts of other song to them and that changes the original song.
  4. The purpose of the assignment is to show you how popular remix culture is and the impact it has on business, society, and culture.
  5. The key question at the heart of the assignment is "how can you remix the content that you share?"

    I am questioning the clarity of your statement "In other words, by removing or adding material to a form of media you can create something new. Photos, songs, artwork, and videos can all be remixed." Can you add a bit more detail of how media can be altered? Give examples.

CRAP DETECT UNTRUTHFUL NEWS

Image
One article on you consider to be very good -  New York Times One article you consider to be only partially trustworthy -  Yahoo Finance One article you consider to be probably untrustworthy -  Babylon Bee   All of these articles are from some type of news website. The first one that I thought was accurate and considered to be good was in the New York Times website, the second one that was partially trustworthy was from Yahoo Finance, and the last one which is untrustworthy: The Babylon Bee.  All three were well written and looked like actual news companies. The webpages all looked similar, they had a title, pictures, advertisements, and options to easily share them. Some differences between them were the Babylon Bee didn't have an author, or links in the article to back it up, it also seemed far fetched. I had to do additional research to find out if it was true or not and it's not true. Both Yahoo Finance and the New York Times article had authors and...
