Eight Values of Free Expression

-

 When I dive more into these Eight Values of Free Expression I see how important they really are. There are a bunch of great expressions, but a few really stick out to me the most. I don’t really notice these eight values of free expression that I have on a day to day basis but I feel that it is important to understand how valuable these are in our lives.


The first one that really caught my attention was the Market Place of Ideas which talked about how in the end the truth will always win. I feel like this allows people to discussed ideas freely and it gives everyone a chance to have a say but in the end, the idea that is the truth will always win. Also, I feel like this relates to not lying and always being honest because someday those lies will catch up with you and the truth will come out. This is why I think this is so significant because honesty is really the best way to go about your life. 


The other free expression that caught my attention was Individual Self-Fulfillment. This from my understanding talked a lot about freedom of speech and expression. Being able to think the way you want to be able to create your own lifestyle and identity. I feel like this is great because in the world we live in today you can’t believe everything you read or see on tv. So you really have to research and figure out whats true and false and live you life according to what you think is correct.

Podcast EOTO

       I have always really enjoyed listening to podcasts so when we were assigned this project I knew I wanted to talk about the history of podcasts. It all started in 2004 by Adam Curry and Dave Winer who developed the software. He made a program that allowed them to download the podcast onto their iPods. This was very beneficial to them and by the next year, there were a lot of companies that started to recognize them and saw how much potential podcasting could be. One of the biggest companies that recognized them was Apple and they put out their iTunes 4.9 update which allowed people to listen to podcasts. Podcast development started to continue to grow and became a great source of information throughout the years. Moving all the way to 2013 Apple said that they had 1 billion podcast subscriptions which is a very impressive number. Podcasting continues to keep growing and as of 2019, there had been around 90 million Americans were listening to podcasts daily and 165 million people

    The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) was established by the Constitution as an essential part of the checks and balances system. It is the highest court in the country and the head of the judicial branch of government (1). The Supreme Court has the responsibility of ruling on the constitutionality of laws passed by Congress. It also has the power to check on the other two branches of government, the Executive Branch and the Legislative Branch (2). The Court holds the power of judicial review, the ability to invalidate a statute for violating a provision of the Constitution. (3).  When first established, the Supreme Court judges were also responsible for serving on circuit courts in the thirteen states. There are presently nine Supreme Court justices, which has been a consistent number since 1869. With all the current buzz about the nomination of Amy Coney Barrett and the idea of Democrats, in retaliation, packing the court, I decided to take a look to see if this was an issue in the past. Th

Week 13 EOTO

  After listening to group 2 present I found that mainstream media was very fascinating to me. Mainstream media is one is really how everyone gets their daily information whether that be from a newspaper or tv. Considering we tend to see this mainstream media every day it has a huge impact on how we live our lives. A lot of media can be very biased so it’s important to what you should listen to and believe. There are different news stations that are very biased in what they believe and talk about so it’s important to understand which ones are before you listen to them. If you tend to maybe listen to Fox News a lot and go over to watch CNN it might sound very different to what you have listened to on Fox News. And the reason for that is because both these news stations have very different opinions. A lot of the mainstream media only cares about getting good ratings even if they are not putting out the best content. Mainstream media can be a huge positive for people that want to be able
