What influences your values about issues relating to your life?
Well I have to say this project has really made me think and I realize that the media has a big influence on my life. Also my parent’s views on the matter also give me a stepping stone to my views, although sometimes my views on things are totally different to theirs.
Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not?
I do not compare the images/values presented by the media to the bible. The main reason for this is that I am non-catholic. Also when I am reading the newspaper for example I don’t remember about any of the bible passages.
Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not
Yes definitely i believe that this project has changed my values. When I watch the news it really relates to the project and I do not believe everything I see or hear on it. I really look closer at the issue and see the flaws in it.
