rofl read the comments under the story. it would be nice if we could make the news for something positive.
i wouldn't do the subject. i do think the lecturer may have a point though, but a point which is best kept to books and not the basis of a subject at uni.
Wow man, I didnt read any of the comments before, I'm going through them now, some people really, really react badly to this. I think its a really interesting study, it modern culture, shows modern australian culture and how we/the world relates to events in our home land and to the world and its situation. What are people chucking a tanti about? If it does become a unit, its a cultural unit; these units delve into human/global culture,but
oh no, god forbid we learn stuff thats not maths/science/commerce. Units like these would encourage people to look at politics/culture/media at a different light, instead of just reading the daily telegraph and making generic comments after summerising what the news has fed us.
