I''ve read the media memoirs that were presented in class, and those that have been posted on this blog. I'm posting a list of main ideas that I pulled from the paragraphs submitted as they occurred to me. You may see repeated themes or concepts which I hope you'll consider as we continue to move through this discourse and examine our own media consumptions and production patterns. I thought it might be interesting to see them all lumped together like this.
Those that are posted elsewhere on the Blog, i'll post as a comment there, and copy paste below here when I'm done.
