What Do I think of an Ideology?

1.Definition of Ideology

           According to Wikipedia, an ideology can be thought of as a comprehensive vision, as a way of looking at things (compare worldview), as in common sense (see Ideology in everyday society below) and several philosophical tendencies (see Political ideologies).

 2.How does it affect media?

        In the First Amendment, it says "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." On the second line, you can see that a American society has freedom of speech, of the press. However, I heard that there is cooperatism in one of the TV channels. That could be the news channels even though they have to be objective.

3.2 Examples of ideoogy of how it affects media

       For example, if you watch the drama Gossip Girl, there are lots of scandals in Mehattan's ellite society. It's not only just teenagers' love scandals. If you think little bit deeper, you can see that their parents also have power to control the University or media. Once the main actress Serena gets into trouble, her mother takes control of the news. Then news or reporters wouldn't  press about her scandal. I think that's unfair. And because the gossip girl agrees with me, she presses the scandal on her blog, and that's end of the story.
