Are We Creating a
Culture of Disrespect?
Values and Attitudes in the Media
|
Whoever tells the stories defines the culture.
That isn't new. What is new is that we have delegated
more and more of the storytelling function to
mass media. Some of the media take the art to
new heights. Too many, however, specialize in
dishing out heaping servings of violence, mayhem
and degradation. In this presentation we will
discuss the role of the media in creating and
nourishing a "culture of disrespect"
among young people.
Combining the latest discoveries in brain science
with cutting-edge research, we will discuss how
media stories of disrespect, sex, and violence
in television, video games and online affect our
kids and what we can do to help our kids become
MediaWise. |
