Public Domain

One website i looked at was called  https://freesound.org/  On this site you can find just about whatever you want, its easy to use in finding the sounds also, this would be a good site to use when looking for sounds to put in videos or just to play around on.


The second website i looked at was called https://morguefile.com On this site you can find lots of pictures of anything just need to search it up, this would be a real good site when doing a project you need pictures for and just something to look at.

The final one i looked at was called  https://www.pond5.com On this site you can find a lot of pictures and videos of what ever you want. It is similar to the Morguefile it is easy to use and would come in hand when doing some school project.

Fair Dealing and Copywrite




Research
- Students can use and make copies of any work when needed for research. if the research is to be published, online or in print, the work used may not be included as this may not be considered fair dealing.

Review- People that use parts of trailers they would be aloud and that would not be copywrite because there just short clips of whats in the moves and they would get the whole story just a little picture about it.

Private study- If a student wanted to use a book for notes that would be ok , and would not be considered copywrite. If they just use the information for  there own understanding and used it in a different way. 

News Reporting- A student can as long as they put where they got it from, For example if they got it from a online website or a news paper they would have to say where they got it from in the post and ask them in before hand to see if they can use the information .

Fake News #8

    According to the article that I read . The term yellow journalism came from a popular New York World comic called "Hogan's Alley," which featured a yellow-dressed character named the "the yellow kid. Led by newspaper owners William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer.

    Satire Versus Fake New, Themanatee.net published a story on how the government of New Brunswick cuts funding to Santa Claus.The Dangers of (and Reasons for) Fake News ( "Click-bait" The 18-year-old, who lives in the small Eastern European town of Veles, says he made at least $60,000 in the past six months by posting fake news about the American Election. 

    Fake or real news,  In the first video they asked 7,800 students if they can tell the difference more than 82% of them had a hard time telling the difference. In the second video they had a bunch of fake and real news that was on the internet and ask them to tell the difference. Most of the people had a hard time with telling the difference . ("Don"t Believe Everything You Hear Or See On The Internet")

   Spotting Fake News,  In the videos they just pretty much said to be careful about the fake and real news because you never know. Most of the News story's they talked about was mostly about Donald Trump.

whistleblowers #7

   The whistleblowers article I picked is one on (Vice News Canada), about how Canada made up laws which will protect journalists. Bill S-231 amends the Canada Evidence Act. The new bill allows journalists the right to refuse to disclose information or documents that could identify a source who has requested anonymity.
   
  I think that as people we have the right to know about what our government is doing and the decisions that are being made. Some things also should be left unsaid as well, I think its good that they came up with a law that make it harder to question and investigate journalists about there story's and articles. Half the time they are about things that the RCMP and the POLICE and they are trying to hide them from the public.
   
 I think that its good because it makes it harder for the police and other agents to find out who the whistleblowers are and its important because the public can know what they are trying to hide.

Caught In Lies #6

Yes, I think that the news we see and hear everyday may be factually incorrect or fabricated because news reporters tend to make up things that are more appealing to the readers.
 The news articles were good , but after reading them and taking the time to look at them , it does not surprise me to find out that journalists have made up the news.
I agree with Shafer's assertion because liars try to make things up and convince themselves that what they are telling others is true news and that it is what they heard, but really it is what they have produced themselves.
I think that schools should make sure that  journalism students can handle the responsibilities and pressures because  they will need to use those skills in the real world. I believe these are things to become a good journalist.
I thing that a newspaper helps when they allow people to give their opinion without giving theirs or getting offended. It makes it easy for many to say their thoughts and get the help they are looking for.
