In the last few weeks of the class, we will be dealing with some specific topics, including telecommunications law and policy, media effects and telecomm ethics. Each has associated chapters in the text (15, 16, 17).

This assignment will be very much like assignment #4. Find a current article or example of media content that relates to one of these areas. For example, how has the FCC responded to the current increased demand on the telecommunications infrastructure? Have social media companies reacted ethically and responsibly in the face of social distancing? What might be the long-term social effects, if any, of increases in gaming?

Craft a 200 – 400 word essay on how that media behavior or content illustrates an idea or concept from class. Draw on the lectures or readings for general ideas and make sure to tie your example to course content. As always, critical commentary is encouraged,
