Journal 5

A webpage related to my article is Rush Limbaugh's home page for his radio talk show. The webpage, obviously, has a very biased agenda. The background color is blue and there are many different things on the website. A picture on the main page shows President Obama with red eyes, referring to him as "the omen." This picture is expected to be on this site and just goes along with all of Limbaugh's beliefs.  I think we can accomplish different goals through the use of video, still images, and audio that we may not be able to accomplish through words alone because a picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is worth much more. It is appropriate to use one medium over the other depending on what you're communicating through. Magazines will obviously only have pictures and no video or audio. Words are more appropriate than images in higher level books.
