Media Spin-drom...


Holloywoodscoop TV. Kirk Cameron's Backlash For Anti-Gay Comments. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPszZcDZ3Tc, Stephanie Bauer, 2012.
There are plenty of controversies and sensational media in the United States – especially in news media.

Religion has been the center of controversy within the news media lately: the Twitter feud between Kirk Cameron and Tracy Gold, as well as other related stories.

The media has fallen victim to sensationalism due in part to media ownership and an unrestrained thirst for unresolved conflict, cat-fights, and the “Jerry-Singerism mentality” of the gradual progression of yellow journalism and senseless-center content among other mediums.

Media coverage of religion – particularly Christianity – has often been twisted into a battle of words and/or a “boxing-match” between social groups against religious ideas and vice-verse.

A situation where religious groups feel unjustly criticized for their foundational beliefs and other groups made to feel unjustly represented and not respected for their ideologies by the latter.
 


Well, until next time -- I am Ralonda Green and this has been "my-2-cents," God loves you and signing-out!
