So overall my views on media criticism haven't changed much. As a Junior I've taken several media classes so watching shows objectively is an inconvenient second nature. Seriously, the only way to enjoy a bad show now is through alcohol. But I do have a fond new appreciation for the term intertextuality. Seriously an ad for a sit-com airing in a sit-com is like homointertextuality. I didn't realize that there were so many different types of intertextuality. Before this class I thought it was just referances to other stuff. The knowledge I have obtained in this class has really broadened my views
For instance, Community is a really fucking good show!
For two, I found a pseudo-lesbian BDSM photo shoot of the two chicks from Community, and It was Awesome!
For actual two, criticizing asshole critics is way funner then criticizing nice ones.
My attitude towards media has improved a tad because I have found a new show to enjoy. Criticism I still think is a bit overzealous. I mean seriously some people get so full of themselves acting like they know something. I know some critics have been in the industry but most seem to be as bad as me and just act like we know what we're talking about.
A lot of journalists consider bloggers to be the lowest form of journalism, if journalism at all. Critics are a little bit better, but not much. In essence, my experience blogging has proved this point to me. A small factual basis and a fuck ton of opinions with a lack of regulation, Like a Boss!
Third I learned that Blogging is fun!
...and really fucking easy.
