For the following questions, refer to the clip below.  This exercise will also require you to combine this week’s content with last week’s media literacy content:

1. Identify one filter in the propaganda model that you think might be relevant here.  Using your understanding of the encoding/decoding model, what message about Islam and women is being encoded in this news segment?

 

2. Using the same video above, briefly explain what a dominant, negotiated, and oppositional reading of this news segment might be.

3. Using a specific example from Andrea Smith and Lila Abu-Lughod, apply 1) the three pillars of white supremacy model and 2) the idea of reducing complex political issues to culture to this news segment.  How does Reza Aslan navigate this in his interview, and what kind of response does he receive from Don Lemon and Alisyn Camerota?

Above mentioned propaganda model content, I upload a attachment about them below and another ppt for reference.
