news stations covered the very same story in completely different ways. Fox News, with their conservative bias, continuously eluded, during the coverage of the Chandra Levy case, that Gary Condit played some role in Chandra’s disappearance. In many numerous televised announcements and news articles released since the day that Chandra was declared missing, Fox News repeatedly kept referring to Condit for more information (Fox News' Kelly O. Beaucar, foxnews.com 5/23/01). And also Fox had turned
In Female Chauvinist Pigs, Ariel Levy argues that objectification of women is not only exploited by men, but also by women. Today, most women are willing to exploit their own bodies and degrade their sexuality. There has been a huge change in the way women present themselves today in comparison to the 1970s. Levy stated that she would turn on the television and see strippers explaining how to lap dance a man to orgasm or channels with babies in tight, tiny uniforms bouncing up and down on trampolines

In Female Chauvinist Pigs, Ariel Levy attempts to reconcile her personal views of feminism with its portrayal in popular culture. In order to challenge what she sees as a co-opted version of feminism, Levy raises the question of authenticity of “sex-positive feminism” (Levy, 63) on two levels: by “selling out” in terms of the body and in terms of our patriarchal culture. In order to restore a binary relationship between feminism and non-feminism, Levy recasts this sex positive feminism as a new form

criticize how the company pressures women to expose themselves on camera. Levy reveals that the cameramen of Girls Gone Wild receive bonuses for capturing a hot girl flashing her breasts on camera as opposed to a normal girl (12-13). Levy intentionally includes this information in order to expose how the company treats women as objects instead of people; the women are literally rated on a scale from one to ten on the show (Levy 12). The fact that the cameramen receive bonuses based on the attractiveness
Grey’s Anatomy is a television series that has been around for several years. “The medical drama series focuses on a group of doctors at a hospital in Seattle, including several who began their careers at the facility as interns.

What is a hero? A hero is someone who does a service to ones community even when staring death in the eyes. A hero is someone who willingly even when face to face with adversity does not quit. A hero can vary from the policemen who keep the streets safe to a preserver of the peace and prosperity to a political leader who helps secure the endowment of democracy to our his country and their posterity. Of all these type of heroes, I tend to believe that the heroes who preserve both peace and prosperity
“Women in Egypt” we can better understand the de-conceptualization of “Third World Women’s Issues”, or in the non-West and how we should challenge negative representations and lack of perspective through a transnational lens. In “Under Western Eyes”, Chandra Talpade Mohanty provides a framework or context in which to view some of complexities over limitations of identity-based knowledge from a feminist perspective. This quote expounds on that idea nicely: “By contrasting the representation of women in

The word Armageddon can evoke some scary thoughts. The word means to most people the destruction or severe alteration, of life, as we know it on the planet Earth. One thing is for sure, the possibility of Armageddon actually happening is very real, and we as a species are not ready for it. Movies entertain us with their version of Armageddon while governments and scientist research and plan to avoid it. The public at large remains oblivious to dangers that are fact not fiction.

Also within the book are magazine and newspaper articles that relate to the story in different ways. For example the article about Chandra Levy parallels Oskar’s story of loss and continuous search. The other articles are apart of the game Oskar played with his dad. Oskar’s dad circled newspaper articles in red as clues to the answer to a search for item. Finally tactically Foer placed
