Some people think that negative ads should be illegal. I don't think they should because if you are running against a strong competition you need to take them down somehow. i also don't think that its right because tour trying to throw your competition under the bus. Lots of parties only talk about the pros but I also think it's a good strategy to compare what you have and they dont. comparing your team to theirs will show you how you have something better than there's. here is an example of comparing
Now here is a example of telling you why you should vote for them
After seeing those you automatically want to vote for them , but which one was more effective? Comparing or listing points?
I believe that during the campaigns media should not be showing "emotion" . By saying that I believe that the media shouldn't pick sides because then the voters might change their decision. Media can change peoples minds fast and effectively that's why reporters should report the facts straight up so voters don't get confused. A reporter could say something that makes the leader sound like they were saying something that they didn't. Reporters a crucial because they can change stories and ruin candidates chances of winning!!
In conclusion, media does play a huge role in elections. In my opinion media should always talk about each campaign equally so voters don't know more about one campaign than the others. In some ways it can be the medias fault for people loosing because if they "hype" up one team and not the others voters can start to fall for those ones. Media is a big part of campaigns and reporters have to watch how they present themselves. If the reporter doesn't like one campaign and they show it, for example, talking like they don't care, shows attitude etc. it can ruin the campaign totally. If that same reporter shows that they like this campaign like eg. Sounds happy, shares own opinion, it can help that campaign.
During these election times reporters have to make sure they watch what they do and say because they can be blamed for a party losing!

The first thing I would like to say is that adding the videos of the different campaign strategies was a really good idea. It really made it easy to see what you meant. One thing I would like to point out is that there are a sometimes you forgot to capitalize at the beginning of a sentence. Also when you were giving examples of how a reporter can react, influencing one campaign over the other I think it is less formal using the abbreviations like eg. I think you could do a sentence like 'For example...’ Other than that you had a really good response, and the paragraphs were good lengths.
Hi Jessica,
I agree with Jarrod on adding videos because when I was picking which response to comment on, yours drew my attention with all the videos! It makes everything more interesting for the reader to read and also fun too.
I would suggest making your post longer because the videos are taking up all the space so you don't have too much space to actually express your opinion! You should make your font smaller so it looks more organized and neat!
Good job Jessica!
