Kathy Griffin-- Whatcha Think?
Being as though we are in public discourse, I am interested in what everyone thinks. Do you think that Kathy Griffin deserves the blow she is getting for her recent image? Would you call this free speech or hate speech?

Final Thoughts
I never thought that one class would open me up to the world
as this course did. Throughout my life I have always been ignorant to the
things that were happening around me in our society. Part of me pretended that
I didn’t care, but the other part of me just didn’t want to take the time to
listen and realize that the issues like we have spoken about throughout this
term are and will always be important. This course taught me how important it
is to have public discourse. It taught me how we as citizens have the right and
responsibility to engage in that discourse and to share our beliefs. Another
thing this class taught me was that the media effect each and every one of us
more than we know, and even more than we want.
