Final Project: Analyzing a Celebrity Story

For your final project in this course, you will be analyzing a celebrity story of your choice. This project will allow you to apply the concepts and ideas that you have learned throughout the course to a real-world example.

Choosing a Celebrity Story

To begin, you should choose a celebrity story that has been covered extensively in the media. This could be a scandal, a controversy, or simply a story that has captured the public's attention. Once you have chosen your story, you should begin to research it in detail.

Analyzing the Media Coverage

Your analysis should focus on the role that the media played in shaping the story, and how the celebrity in question was portrayed in the press. You should consider questions such as:

  • How did the media frame the story?
  • What biases were present in the coverage?
  • How did the celebrity respond to the coverage, and did they try to shape the narrative in any way?

Considering Broader Cultural Implications

In addition to analyzing the media coverage of the story, you should also consider the broader cultural implications of the story. What does this story tell us about our society and our values? How does it reflect larger trends in celebrity culture and the media?

Final Project Requirements

Your final project should be a well-researched and thoughtful analysis of your chosen celebrity story. You should draw on the concepts and ideas that you have learned in this course, and back up your claims with evidence and examples from the media coverage of the story.
