Knowing this it makes me want to find out about more issues that the food has effected the environment.

No matter what type of media is it, it just continues to evolve. One thing that is the same no matter what kind of evolution takes place in media is that the older media or traditional media which consisted of television broadcast, radio's, newspapers, books, and magazines. With these traditional forms of media, it was able to create the stable of what we call social media today. An example used in the reading we had to read is how our phones still have the shutter sound feature in the camera’ which the shutter feature was in traditional camera. This was added into digital phones as well as cell phones to help the user know when they are taking a photo. Another example of a media that was kind of influenced by traditional media was media such as digital content like books and magazines. Media will continue to evolv...

Most groups decided to use movies or television series to cover this such as "Friends", "The Longest Yard", "School or Rock", and "Cool Runnings". Each one of these movies covers the 5 stages in many ways. Some were more interesting and understanding while others were a bit more in depth where you would have to look into it to see it. Each one also had stronger points in them in others when it came to identify which stage what which. In the movies such as "The Longest Yard" and "Cool Running" it is very clear where the stages are covered. Such examples is the forming stages of these movies where there are either tryouts to join a team.
