·       Has it been difficult to find articles on social justice issues why/why not?

 

·       Do you think that the media operates from a moral framework? Give evidence by using your research. 

 

I think That Social justice is portrayed quite well by some media such as ” A Current Affair” and “60 Minutes” but not enough. Alot of the major brands in some way contribute to social Justice issues which are things such as Nike and their advertising but in actual fact cause alot of pain and suffering to people in third world countries.

 

It seems easy to find articles on some social justice issues because it’s global and big and apart of our world. Our issue seems to be the one were we can not find anything on. Its is harder yet agian to find two articles that contradict each other so we can present on that.

 

I think that most of the media focuses on a moral framework but every now and again you find one aspect of the media that makes the whole thing like it has the morality of a criminal. There was once a thing about a boy named Corey Delany who through a big party in Melbourne and damaged alot of property. At First the media was quite strict and making him out to be a lowlife but then he became famous and then newspapers started publishing what he was wearing and where to buy them from which is totally immoral.
