Presentation Ideas

First off, I agree that Taranjit's ideas about what we should look at for the presentation are sound. The media part of it is important, I think, because they misrepresent so much information about a lot of things. It's all about ratings and sales and they'll sensationalise things in order to achieve this - regardless of how much damage they could do to impressionable people (and those that they're "sensationalising").

When things are reported in the press about government issues, they're always done with a political bias, which begs the question; Do we ever get a true picture? The media seem to have more influence on everyday life; in an insidious way in a lot of cases - but that's just my opinion.

I think we should think about meeting up as often as we can so we can get properly organised and know exactly what we're doing for the presentation - we only have just over a week to do it in. I'm going to spend some time searching for relevant info before we meet up on Monday - so hopefully I'll have something useful to contribute.
