Kimberly’s Reflections

I enjoyed this project, the researching of the topic “yellow journalism’ was very interesting. I enjoy writing and making blogs but never used WordPress before. I learned a lot of history with other interesting facts all around and how much the past has influenced the future. But because of such gap between dates I had a tough time finding out three post that wouldn’t be the same.

Doing this type of project has helped me get better at working on blogs. Also i  have got a better understanding as to what Yellow Journalism is and how today’s yellow journalism is similar. I always see magazines in the grocery store or target with huge headlines and false stories about celebrities and i didn’t know that it was called yellow journalism. I always wondered why people came out with those type of magazines. I’ve learned a lot doing research on yellow journalism. I liked my group members even though we all have a busy schedule but we made it work.

Joanna’s Reflection

I enjoyed doing this project. I had never used WordPress before and it was a great experience.  Researching “Yellow Journalism” was interesting because it really helped me get a better understanding of where tabloids today got their influence from. Also this topic is fun because I have always known that their are negative stereotypes for journalists, but I never knew why or where they came from. During my research I finally found the reasoning and explanations behind those stereotypes. Overall I had no issues with my group and even though we did not meet often we communicated very well.
