Ear buds needed!
Please watch Lunch Break with Tanya Rivero and her conversation on the importance of political satire in society.

Assignment: in approximately 200 words, summarize the current state of satire, weaving in responses from Alan Miller, president of the News Literacy Project. Include who is an appropriate target and why for satire (remember the objective behind satire), how does one combat inappropriate satire and finally what is the relationship between satire and the First Amendment.
This is the last grade of the term. This is a writing grade (50%) and should help those who need a boost in their grade. Due by midnight Friday, with the exception of those who receive extended time. Please proof read.
I'll have all the news stories graded by tomorrow. Please, please send along any missing material. After Monday this marking period is over. Remember any late material is worth 50 points.
PLEASE LABEL THE ASSIGNMENT.
See you Monday. Any missing work? Get in in. Monday is the last opportunity to share any assignments that have been overlooked, after which the grade remains a ZERO.
