Forskelligheder i formidlingen:
Der er mange måder at formidle en nyhed på. På Tv skifter formidlingen ofte stil. Nogle Tv-aviser der sidder de stille og roligt og forklare om nyhederne, ret kedeligt men skal nyhederne også være sjove? Det er jo noget man selv styre, der 
er jo nogle Tv-aviser hvor de fiser rundt og leger klovne. Når man så tænker på nyheder i Avisen, så er der igen flere måder at formidle på. En nyhed kan jo formidles på mange måder. Man 
kan jo lave en avis artikel kedelig men med 
meget information, eller du kan gøre den lidt mere spændende, men det sker ofte på 
bekostning af noget information. I takt med at vi teknologisk ”Opgradere” vores udstyr, så bliver vores nyheder jo også mere avancerede. Det gør fx, at vi er begyndt at formidle mange nyheder 
på nettet. Personligt syntes jeg at jeg finder flere nyheder på Facebook end jeg gør i Avisen. Fordi vi har så nemt ved at sprede ting over Facebook og det faktum at det spredes så hurtigt, så blev det hurtig til en kilde for nyheder. En ny måde at formidle ting der sker rundt omkring i verden. 
Jeg har ofte læst en nyhed på Facebook hvor de forklare den kort og måske misser pointen i selve Nyheden, hvor jeg så bagefter læser det i Avisen og faktisk finder ud af hvad der skete og hvorfor. Fordi at man gerne vil være den første til at dele nyheden, så ender de tit med at misse nogle vigtige pointer som de så bare ikke får med. Derfor er der mange måder at formidle den samme historie på. Som fx skibet, Leopard, der blev kapret af Somaliske pirater. Der vælger Kristina Lund Jørgensen, Journalist, at skrive om Søren Ærø, selvom andre måske ville vælge en af de 5 andre gidsler at skrive om. Det er jo i bund og grund samme historie, hun vælger bare at tage den fra Søren Ærø's vinkel. Da hun formidler denne nyhed der vælger hun at smide et billed med af Søren Ærø som er helt udsultet og omringet af Somaliske pirater. Det bliver gjort for at vi forhåbentlig kan identificere os med historien. Der bliver også brugt noget afsløring, da man finder ud af at gidslerne kunne have været løsladt 2 måneder efter kidnapningen i stedet for 2 år efter. Man fandt ud af at lederne

af fragt firmaet som gidslerne arbejdede på fik et tilbud. De kunne få lov at købe deres arbejdere hjem for 3. Mio Dollars. Men de afslog dette tilbud, det er så først blevet sagt efter de blev løsladt, derfor blev det lidt en sensation. Men i det uddrag af teksten, der bliver der snakket meget om Søren Ærø, for at man skal lære ham at kende som person. Man høre lidt om hans venner, familie, og hvad der venter på ham når han kommer hjem. Nu er det også blevet vigtigt at være den første ude med det seneste. Det vægter højt, specielt hvis man kan få eksklusivitet. De nyhedskriterier der bliver brugt i udraget er fx Aktualitet, da det var ret nyt da der blev skrevet om det. Identifikation fordi at der bliver brugt noget følelsesmæssigt appel fordi der bliver snakket meget om hans gudsøn og og et løfte han gav ham. Som forklaret tidligere er der også sensation med, fordi man finder ud af at de afslog det første tilbud om at få dem hjem. Fordi søren ikke er kommet hjem endnu, så bruger de det meste af deres tid på at snakke med hans venner og finde ud af lidt om ham. Det gør også at vi lære ham lidt at kende og gør måske at vi bliver en smule knyttet til historien. Man høre lidt om hvordan han er som person, og hvordan han fik sit kælenavn ”Søren Sidevind”. Det gør at vi kommer lidt ind på livet af ham og at vi lære ham lidt at kende. 
Som man ser i hæfte 1. Side 8, ”Johan Blem Larsen: Søren Lyngbjørn har det bedre end ventet”, så vælger de nogle andre fakta at gå efter. Det ligger mere vægt på nyheden og hvordan han faktisk havde det derovre. Der står her ”Efter 838 dages fangenskab er det løsladte gidsel Søren Lyngbjørns helbedre bedre, end lægerne turde håbe på”. Han har været meget syg og haft mavesmerter, men det nævnte ”Kristina Lund Jørgensen: Sørens Ærø” slet ikke. Så her er den samme nyhed, formidlet på 2 forskellige måder.
Johan Blem ligger mere vægt på hvordan Søren Ærø's helbred er, i stedet for at ligge vægt på hvordan tingene står til i hans hjemby. 
Så er der ”Thomas Gösta Svensson: Gamblede med Gidslerne”. Han har valgt at snakke om 

hvordan lederne af fragt firmaet, Shipcraft, har gamblet med gidslernes liv. De fik jo tilbudt at få fangerne hjem 2 måneder efter de blev taget til fange, de skulle blot betale 3 mio dollars i løsesum. Det sagde Shipcraft blankt nej til, da 
det var hvad han blev rådet til af hans britiske rådgivere. Efter de sagde nej, satte piraterne prisen op til 36 mio dollars. De har jo så diskuteret prisen, og endte i allersidste ende på 6.9 mio dollars, det er meget mere end det første tilbud de sagde nej til. Det som de 3 historier har tilfælles, er at det er samme nyhed de dækker. 
De har bare alle 3 valgt en forskellig vinkel af historien. 2 af teksterne drejer sig meget om Søren Ærø, mens Thomas Gösta fokusere meget på hvordan Shipcraft har håndteret situationen, 
og hvad de gjorde for faktisk at få gidslerne 
hjem. Ifølge Claus Bech, har Shipcraft fulgt rådgivernes




























råd om hvad de skulle gøre i denne her grusomme situation. Men rådgiverne var på timeløn, så jo længere tid gidslerne var fanget, jo mere tjente de. Det kan have noget at gøre med det råd som de gav Shipcraft med ikke at betale de 3 mio dollars allerede da der kun var gået 2 måneder. Shipcraft fortryder dog ikke sin beslutning om at følge deres rådgivere og de Danske myndigheders råd. I modsætning til ”Kristina Lund Jørgensen: Sørens Ærø” så bruger ”Thomas Gösta Svensson Gamblede med gidslerne” ikke følelsesmæssige tricks som fx, at bruge en ”Hovedperson” som vi lære at kende og begynder at knytte os lidt til. Gamblede med gidslerne, køre på fakta om hvordan Shipcraft håndterede situationen. Men de får også Shipcraft til at virke som den ”Onde” fordi at de nævner hvordan de sagde nej til at betale 3 mio dollars i håb om at den blev lavere.

Plastic Surgery

...Not only do people accept plastic surgery, they embrace it as a solution to personal and professional problems. While appearance has always been important, mainstream acceptance of plastic surgery has created a society that values appearance over ability. Teenage girls and middle-aged women seek acceptance based on their appearance in all aspects of their lives. Teenage girls want to be the prettiest and the thinnest due to the pressure of society and their peers. Middle aged women pursue plastic surgery in hopes of enhancing their looks and looking younger than what they are. Today’s society is so centered on appearance that it can be very misleading to the minds of young girls and women. There are images of female bodies everywhere in today’s society. Women are used to sell everything from cars to food. Television and big screen movie actresses are typically tall, young looking and thin. The majority of these famous women have used some type of fad diet or practiced mal nutrition. There are articles everywhere urging women and young girls to lose weight. They make claims that beauty and the perfect body will provide the perfect marriage and rewarding lifestyles. Beauty truly is only skin deep. One cannot achieve what they desire based on their looks alone. You can turn on the TV or open any magazine such as US Weekly and see the latest cosmetic surgery that some actress recently underwent. There are publications everywhere promoting what’s new in...

Plastic Surgery

...English assignment A 1) The two texts both state, that the narrow modern day perception of beautiful is the main reason for the rapidly increasing number of plastic surgeries on adolescents. “… They’re constantly bombarded with images of beautiful men and women who are held up as the norm”(P. 2, L. 10-11), Valerie Ulene, who’s a specialist in preventive medicine, writes. A norm which neither the youth nor anyone else has the slightest chance of reaching. The pressure of fitting in that especially lies on the teenagers makes them want to change even the smallest of “flaws”. While people like Dr. John Canedy, president of the American Society of Plastic Surgery, sees the good sides of this epidemic, most people agree that the good things don’t outweigh the consequences. While Canedy sees the surgeries as a boost of self-esteem to some as much as an improvement of appearance, others see the surgeries as an easy way of changing something that in reality perhaps shouldn’t be changed. Since our body isn’t fully evolved when in the teenage years, changes in these years can really mess things up. Many teenagers aren’t aware of the permanence of the operations, and furthermore do their ideas often appear from day-to-day – parents as well as doctors should therefor be careful not to give permission to a quick and spontaneous idea. 2) Valerie Ulene starts of her article by telling a personal story about her struggles with her body back when she was an adolescent. “To say...

Breast Implants

...ENGL 1102 English Composition II-Online 26 June 2015 It is not uncommon as an adult to undergo plastic surgery in America today. However, it is becoming more common for young adults and teenagers to have plastic surgery. One of the more popular plastic surgery routines is getting breast implants. When asked, teenagers expressed that they often feel awkward and flawed, and plastic surgery helps to “fix” their bodies. Teenagers seem to think that plastic surgery is the quick answer to fitting in with their peers. Our society has accepted that individuals of all ages are choosing to go under the knife in attempts to “correct” their bodies; including teenagers. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), there were 286,254 breast augmentations performed in the year 2014. Breast augmentation rates as the top procedure for women in America. Breast augmentation is a surgical procedure to increase the shape, size, and fullness of the female breast. While breast augmentation is a customary choice for adult women, the expanding popularity of breast augmentation with teenagers has led to a lot of criticism and speculation. There is little doubt that being a teenager is tough. Hormones, academic stress, and peer pressure are everyday struggles for the average American teen. In addition to this stress put on young females, there is the additional fact that body image is generally a big part of the problem. During teenage years the body is changing, and young...

Plastic Surgery

...Plastic Surgery Recent study investigated that the rate of Asian American plastic surgery has been increasing through years. For Asian Americans, the three most common plastic surgeries are nose reshaping, eyelid surgery, and breast augmentation. Even though most of the Asian Americans decided to do plastic surgery based on different reason, their purposes are eventually similar, to look more Caucasian. Especially for American born Asian Americans, they suffer more between Asian culture and American culture. Plastic surgery might be an appropriate procedure for them to assimilate into the American culture. While Asian Americans are relying on plastic surgery to gain their assimilation into the mainstream, Asians in Asia want to look more westernized because of the ideal beauty they are looking for in the ‘white’. Asians are looking for the beauty more in westernized recently. They want to look better; beauty means so much to them. When talking about beauty, obviously it’s referring to female. Gender plays an important role here because according to a research group, 91 percent of plastic surgery patient were women, only nine percent were men. (Plastic Surgery Demographics) When plastic surgery is being mentioned, it is being referred to cosmetic surgery, to look more beautiful. As a result, the focus of this topic will be mainly on analyzing Asian American women’s story behind plastic surgery. Class status is also an important criteria in this topic.

Professional Roles and Values

...C304 Professional Roles and Values The face of nursing has evolved and changed since it’s inception. Today’s nurse is faced with cultural, ethical and technological issues that didn’t exist even twenty years ago. As such, nurses have had to continuously evolve to continue to provide the quality, selfless care that patients have always relied on them for, and expected, since the very beginning of nursing. From pediatrics to gerontology, nurses are serving a culturally, religiously and financially diverse population with challenging needs. In the face of this, nursing itself is becoming ever more diverse in it’s culture and skill set, which is helping the profession stay in the race, and continue to advance the practice of nursing. Although I’ve been a nurse for only seven years, and spent the bulk of my working career for fortune 100 companies in the aviation field, I feel i bring a wealth of business, people-skills and management expertise to the field. I was drawn to the field of nursing for many years, and when I finally had an opportunity to turn to school, I did, and pursued my nursing degree. Helping people was always a goal of mine, and I have been able to fulfill that goal and set new ones in that realm within the world of nursing. My past business experience has provided me with the knowledge to not only provide safe, quality care for my patients, but to relate to families and hospital staff in a clear and effective manner that improves outcomes for my patients.

Perfection?

...Perfection Is real beauty skin deep? Looking at your reflection, what do you see? Do you think you’re beautiful? There is no greater challenge to a woman than to feel good about herself. Atypically, there are more things to help us in the struggle-technologically raped, plagued with images of flawless, stick-thin size zero women who appear to defuse perfection from the very pores of their untarnished skin. Drastic medical procedures such as elective cosmetic surgery. But still, many people in our society feel unattractive and unworthy. Attractiveness is one thing that everyone craves for but can the definition of perfect be argued? The mind of today’s society conforms painstakingly to the idealist doctrine of the perfect body image; portrayed extensively by the media the media should not have this control over what beauty is. How can one say what beauty is? Aesthetic appreciation differs from an individual’s opinion to cultural preferences. One may be fascinated by a certain eye color or skin color, beauty doesn’t depreciate if one is skinny or tall or in contrast, short and fat. The media’s influence on women talking among themselves is like listening to a bombardment of groans, whines and complaints about their appearance. Observing a women eat is to watch them pick perspicaciously through food, confronting a mental battle against calorie and fat inhibitions. women have crumpled into the furthest corners of their minds during their perpetual fantasies of looking...

Medical Marijuana Should Be Legalized

...Medical Marijuana Should Be Legalized By Antoina Wynn English 101 Ms.McCormick 21 April 2012 Medicine is the art or science of restoring or preserving physical condition as by means of drugs, surgery or obstetrics or any substances used in the treatment of illness (dictionary.com). From there one must ask what a drug is. The dictionary definition of drug is any substance recognized in the official pharmacopeia, any substance intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment or prevention of disease in humans and other animals, or a habit forming medicinal or illicit substance, especially a narcotic. A cancer patient goes through chemotherapy in an attempt to cure their cancer and preserve their life, but this form of medicine causes nausea, vomiting, infections, hair loss, mouth sores, diarrhea, constipation and fatigue. These symptoms make the already sick patient feel much worse than they already were but medical marijuana can relieve many of the symptoms that chemotherapy causes. Marijuana or cannabis was once recognized in the US Pharmacopeia, so its medical uses are known and recognized. Medical Marijuana should be legalized because it still provides a safe alternative for healing and relief for a various range of illnesses Cannabis or Marijuana was classified as a Schedule 1 drug in the controlled substance act of 1972. Schedule 1 drugs are considered to have high potential for abuse, no medical use and not be safe for use even under medical...

Bringing Western Culture to South Korea Via Nursing Home, Plastic Surgery, Clothing and Makeup

...Western Plaza Inc. Bringing Western Culture to South Korea via Nursing Home, Plastic Surgery, Clothing and Makeup Jacob Schwarz Executive Summary My reason for writing this study is to determine the feasibility of building a nursing/retirement home, a plastic surgery outpatient center, and a cosmetic and clothing store in Seoul, South Korea. In my opinion, South Korea is welcoming to this venture; this can be seen in the upcoming research. In this report, I explore the geography of Seoul, South Korea. I learn of the growing, large, population and the population density of 45,000 people per square mile (“Population Statistics,” 2013). Next, I review the demographics and find out that minority groups consist of 2.2% of the population (Population Statistics, 2013). While reviewing the demographics I found that the education system is extremely strict; though it is more lenient now, it is still success driven (Chakrabarti, 2013). I also found that religion is not going to be an issue with this venture, in my opinion. There are two major religions; the major Christian religion will be implemented in the venture (Koo, n.d.). Education and demographics are important to a global business venture, though I believe the economy is most important. I present information about South Korea’s economy, and how it has transformed from an aid recipient to a donor country (Globalization, n.d.). Here is where I mention the chaebol’s success, which accounted for 55.7% of South Koreas GDP in...

Are Eating Disorders Caused by the Media?

...Nicole Gallucio English 102 Prof. Rhodes October 25th, 2010 Are Eating Disorders Caused By the Media? Have you ever looked in a magazine or watched a fashion show on television? If you have then you have been subjected to the media portraying models as the hottest thing on the planet. What you don’t know is that a good portion of these models are suffering from eating disorders. I believe the media is to blame for our nation’s epidemic of eating disorders because, not only do magazines and television portray skinny to be in, but also songs in our culture convey the attitude “…that only the beautiful and thin are valued and loved” (Hesse-Biber 88). Some women and men in the world are happy about how they look. Some think that they are ugly and reach toward plastic surgery, but even more think that the only way they can be happy is by starving themselves, or throwing up everything they have eaten that day. In this paper I will discuss facts and information on how the media is to blame for our nation’s epidemic, the pro’s and con’s to eating disorders and the media, and a few possibilities on how to fix this epidemic before it starts to spiral out of control. When you think about the billions and billions of people in this world, it is hard to believe that “2 million Americans-most of them women and girls-do suffer from eating disorders” (Gorman 110). That number is shocking isn’t it? How about the fact that “approximately 1 in 150 teenage girls in the U.S. falls prey...

Argumentative Essay On Designer Babies

...experiments that require the use of labs and technology are extremely expensive, especially with gene editing because the government won’t fund its projects. So, one can assume that gene editing, specifically with babies that are brought to term, is very expensive. This could heavily affect the entire world because it would increase the gap between the one percent and the rest of the world. In fact, it would make the economy a lot worse because since only the very wealthy could afford to have designer babies, their children would continuously get smarter, more athletic, better looking, and designer babies would soon have every advantage over the rest of the population. Phase 2: Why I am writing this paper. I was given an assignment in my English class to research a topic and write a research paper about it. Currently, I am reading a book called A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. This book is about a utopia where all babies are specifically designed and born in a lab. In this book, the author describes how the babies are made, however, he is very vague and doesn’t explain a lot about the gene editing process or how the babies are affected. In addition, this book is fictional, so the author could write any outcome about how it affects society. This made me very interested in two questions. First, what is gene editing and how does it work? Second how would gene editing/ designer babies affect our society? I was interested in these topics because even though Huxley briefly talks about...

It should allow the reader to focus, on the appraisal of the nursing model used in practice during the patients care.

...The Representation of Gender in Virginia Woolf’s Orlando and Jeffrey Eugenides’s Middlesex by Marte Rognstad A Thesis Presented to The Department of Literature, Area Studies and European Languages University of Oslo In Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the MA Degree Spring Term 2012 Marte Rognstad The Representation of Gender in Virginia Woolf’s Orlando and Jeffrey Eugenides’s Middlesex Marte Rognstad http://www.duo.uio.no Trykk: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo Abstract This thesis presents an exploration of the representation of gender in Virginia Woolf’s Orlando and Jeffrey Eugenides’s Middlesex mainly in light of the theories of Judith Butler. The focus will be on how the two novels challenge the traditional concept of gender and gender categories, and in what ways the novels can give us new perspectives on the concept of gender. The theoretical focus will be on Judith Butler, more precisely her idea of gender as performance, and her deconstructionist approach to identity categories. I will present Butler’s proposal for a “new feminist genealogy,” and through my investigation of the representation of gender in Orlando and Middlesex I will show how both novels take on a “Butlerian” understanding of the concept of gender. By looking at various issues related to gender explored in the two novels, and pointing to similarities and differences between the two works, I hope to show how the protagonists, Orlando and Cal/lie, break down and transcend the fraught...
