Before the emergence of television and radio, print media dominated the majority of known societies. However, the technological innovations that were introduced during from the 19th till the 21st Century have created a new global marketplace, transcending national borders and culture barriers. This proliferation of news and their homogenous nature is evident in almost all media mediums used and it is far more forceful and dynamic than the print press news initiators could have ever imagined. Nevertheless, although the technological changes that have occurred have increased the speed and the amount of the exchanged information, especially though the use of the Internet, it has been almost impossible for scholars to accept a universal definition of what constitutes today the news, or how this vast increase in outlets and media will influence news production, distribution, or consumption in the future.
Regardless of how well-designed and targeted a message may be, or what it may desire to transmit, it will not succeed its original purpose unless it is disseminated to the selected targets through the most appropriate medium. What is the appropriate medium? One that complements the message, one that addresses individuals consistently, and most importantly, one that delivers the message at the right time, when the target is most receptive. By selecting the most appropriate medium, the message can generate a positive reaction from the target, transform it to a prospective audience, and finally mature it to a friendly receiver.
According to media scholars, one valuable lesson from the early ages of news release has been the effective selection and combination of the appropriate media vehicles, known in contemporary marketing studies as the media mix. This process has proven to be complex, while it required careful identification of the target segment. Vested upon this fact, lies another important realization. The media environment has been changing almost cyclically in reaction to technological, economic, market, cultural, and political forces. Contemporary media scholars, if they wish to acquire an important lesson from the past communication practices, have to take under consideration that the latest forms of news gathering, have turned their current focus on entertainment and “soft news.” This shift is not a recent outcome. It has happened in the past and it’s based on the notion of complying with the existing consumer beliefs, the social norms that prevail, the economic models that emerge, and of course the competitive trends in the media industry.
This news quest resulted in an important shift in the contemporary journalists’ work. Today, in comparison to the past, the desired audiences tend to have an active and not passive role during the news consumption process. This shift is strengthened by the fact that citizens globally are aware the news hidden purpose. News nowadays are not disseminated, as indented originally, to educate, unite and inform the societies they penetrate, but rather to entertain, mislead and hide the important essence of the messages from public attention. News has ceased to be news compared with its past definition. Media scholars, along with today’s consumers, must research and understand the underlying principles of this noticeable change before attempting to alter the scenery and claim back the news’ utility. It’s not only another public interest topic. It’s a practice that will alter consumers’ present role and the future course of media practices.

Guys, during the editing I found out that Rebel Scholar did in fact send me the $100.00 case found here: tinyurl.com Now the question is, did more go into the molding of this case or is the price difference simply in the Laser Etch and the UV Coating? I’m going to order a couple more just to check it out for you guys and we’ll see if maybe I can do some sort of giveaway in that comparison ViD. Plus after a couple days of use, I’ll let you know if the design held up and we’ll do a INCASE …

How important is it to be a National AP Scholar as a junior?I have taken 4 AP exams as a sophomore and have 3 more lined up for junior year putting me at 7. I'm planning on taking 3 more senior year. However, if becoming a national ap scholar as a junior truly looks very very special on a college application, I'll independently study another subject and attempt another exam for 4 this year… But I'm not quite sure if I want to do that since my life is busy enough as a junior. So… Big picture is it worth it?

There is no one like the scholar……excellent performance.
The best approach is trying both local and scholarships over the web. The easiest scholarships to get are in your local community compared to the national ones because the national ones have 1000s of applications compared to probably a 100 more or less on the local level. Also, some states do reward high school seniors with great grades with money for college, so it becomes another good reason to see your guidance counselor. I also recommend completing the FAFSA form in January or early February because it can bring need based scholarships. Before you submit an application, I recommend having it proofread by at least an individual or two for both grammar and spelling to make a great impression on the judges. I will include some more free resources on the web to locate college tuition money. Good luck and keep searching and applying!
