Q: Give one example of civic relevance in regards to media and describe its impact on society. (ijoshi)

A1: One example of civic relevance in regards to media is political entertainment television. The impact it has had on society is one that Bucy and Gregson describe as "fostering the perception of a face-to-face exchange about a political topic" (Bucy, 226). More specifically, it gives those watching the sense of participating or being involved in a political discussion. Taking this idea further, this is potentially disasterous due to its contribution to a false consciousness that the American public continues to hold on to. (kmartinez)
