Porn in the News

During "The Young Turks" news report, they were more focused on how the Duke student was being criticized by other students for doing porn. They said that it is obvious that her porn got exposed and she somewhat get what she deserves, because that's what always happens. The reporters also say that is is very wrong of the other students to be bullying her for doing something that she enjoys. I believe that these reporters bring this information up about their views of porn because they want society to see that yeah, porn can be something that not everyone approves of, but everyone has their right to enjoy certain things that shouldn't be criticized.

The other news report I observed was "Take Part." Like "The Young Turks," "Take Part" had more good comments about this than bad. One reporter states that if porn pays for debt, maybe we should get into porn. Another reporter stated that there are obvious risks in this industry of porn, but wonders why this is even a story when she is an adult who made her own decision. The only negative comment I heard during this report was that they said that porn is possibly a factor in influencing other students to do the same, and is that really the path we want people going? I feel like this news report is showing us viewers and making a point that we all have our personal preferences and there is nothing wrong with doing what you want to do.
