2. Do you read international news? Why or why not?
I do read some international news, but normally it is from something my parents email me or tell me about. Or most the time when I am reading something international it is about Broyhill and their company over seas. I do not really have a desire to read international news only because it does not interest me. And even though I know it would be good to be inline with what is going on in other countries, I hear about it from my parents. Like I said I do hear about Broyhill international news and what goes on with there factories.
4. How does the concentration of media ownership limit the number of voices in the marketplace? Do we need rules limiting media ownership?
The concentration of media ownership limit the number of voices in the marketplace because by having the consumers demand what is being produced. If the consumers want less, than less is going to be made lowering the number of voices or brands needed. I think it is good that we have some rules that limit how media ownership controls what goes on, but I also think that they need to lay off a bit. It is important that consumers get what they need, but it also is important that people have jobs.
5. Is there such a thing as a global village? What does this concept mean to you?
I am not sure of a global village, but when I hear that terminology I instantly think of many different people all having different backgrounds coming together to make one community. It can be viewed as a way that people get to learn about each other and other countries far or near them. It is something that I think would be very interesting and entertaining to be part of, but also could be a very challenging concept. In the future I think we are going to see more global villages come alive in America and around the world
