Reaction Paper #13

Just a note: the extra credit I sent out last week isn't due until the last day of class, so it's not too late to do it if you haven't yet.

Here is Reaction Paper 13. Since next week is a little unusual I'll make it due on Saturday the 29th instead of the usual Thursday.

For paper 13 I'd like you to do a media summary of any country of your choosing (except the U.S.). What are the major newspapers? What is the literacy rate? What is their TV like? Is there a TV license or tax? Who owns the stations, the state or private companies or both? What are the shows like? What percent of the population has Internet access? Are there any controversies having to do with the media? These are just a few questions you can answer. Be inquisitive and come up with more of your own. Remember, you can use Wikipedia as a starting point but try to use the sources they reference.
