Based on the readings we’ve covered so far in class, which three contemporary media issues do you think should be flagged as of highest importance for understanding global media industries? Why?How should I structure the essay?

There is no required structure for the essay, but I suggest the following:
In a few sentences, give a succinct, punchy summary of global media industry, and in this context, identify three issues that you think are of the most importance for understanding global media industry: issue 1, issue 2, and issue 3.

Issue 1 (use the issue as the subheading, for example, ‘media concentration’. So it’s important to come up with an issue that we can describe in 2-3 words! We definitely don’t want to see a subheading that is sentences-long!)

About 700 words. In 2-3 paragraphs, give a critical, insightful, and succinct discussion of the issue which shows your deep understanding of the concept. The discussion should not just be a summary of the readings, but a critical reflection on the readings. The suggested balance of readings and reflection is 4:6. You are expected to bring in 1-2 examples to support your arguments for each issue. These can be examples from different countries and from different media industries.

Issue 2: the same…

Issue 3: the same…

Conclusion: 100 words
