On this episode of CWT360° join me, and my esteemed media communications industry expert guests, Tonya Scholz, President of the South FL Chapter of the Assoc. for Women in Communications and Eric Yutzy, Anchor/Reporter, Local 10 News, as we discuss “The Role of the Media: Part I: Perpetuating Racial, Social and Political Discord; Is the media reporting on or shaping society?” Not only will we discuss and define the role in media in society today, but also talk on what responsibilities a consumer should take to discern between real news and “fake news”, the responsibilities of those in the media have to make sure to avoid losing accurate information in the name of branding, the portrayal of racist/classist images in the media and other related topics.
