The experience people give off to produced something is called Citizen Journalism. The definition is about sharing information of the general public using either the web, social media, or blogs. Its the process of analyzing, collecting different information to portray to the public. Thus, we use Citizen Journalism almost everyday to learn something new.

We research every day about either ourselves or about the world. To find better information, we go to other articles that contain information about another author’s perspective.For example, This blog. The blog is sharing the group’s knowledge and experiences into a Word press. Another example is YouTube because it has a Highly education system that requires no charge. For instance, I wanted to learn how to draw an anime characters for my new comic, so instead of me going to pay someone for education, I went either online or YouTube to find the information. The last example is a Website called the urban dictionary. Many times, there are multiple meanings of a specific word with hidden meaning, and they are discovered by other people’s different points of view of the word.These types of Journalism tend to help people think more broadly about the world. That’s because the writer has been considered an experienced journalism.

.

Citizen Journalism is positive in a way by dealing with cases that could leave into a life or death situation. For example Treyvon Martin went to a case where a guy named George Zimmerman was accused of shooting Treyvon Martin for no reason and by this case happening Citizen Journalism played a part in it because people from all across the world protested on multiple social medias, causing the world to here his story. This means that the whole world is basically spreading there beliefs t others by the power of there hands. Citizen journalism is very powerful and can impact a lot of lives with just a few words.

The only reason why people are getting tricked with ads is because of people putting lies and actual facts together. People are trying to gain money in a ruthful way, and to this day, people are gathering other people to help their lies. People are starting to developing more ways to seek more information by using either ads, bots, spear phishing, distracted by animation and etc. They all lead into traps and fake news, causing the world to gather lies about one another.

Computational Propaganda is the manipulation of human consciousness, rewiring the brain to make people act in such a manner that doesn’t exist. Computational Propaganda is using technology to teaches people’s beliefs about a particular subject into a misleading fact causing them to believe false information. In other words, this type of propaganda is more of a manipulation. This is more of happening to children because of them not knowing the real insight of the internet. The three major causes of them are Ads, Bots, and Spear Phishing. Ads are part of Computational Propaganda because its showing people animations, falsely used facts, and other false advertising click bates, to lure the viewers in to get a particular app or games, however, when you click on it, traps the view causing them to give up their personal information. Spear phishing is a phase where emails are used to claim a situation falsely.  For example, When checking your emails, you might see, “You Won 500$ Claim your prize!” or “You WON a Scholarship, Click this link to Claim.” This can immediately fool a lot of people, and once they click the link, the link can either spread a virus or either gather personal information that could harm them in the future. Lastly, bots are also another example because they can do the same thing as ads are doing but more directive towards them. They can either call, text, or a lot of times, sends an email that’s not legible. Throughout all of the majors, depending on the advertising, a lot of the advertisements are hard to doge because a lot of people are supporting the facts behind the scenes.

Going behind the scenes of why people are falling for such false ads is because of people being click-bated. Youtube is an example because it’s simple to catch people’s attention with just one thumbnail and one title. Another Example is a YouTuber name Josh Gillies, this person made a video about a recent death of Kobe Bryant of him being alive and faking his death at 3AM. This video was immediately posted after Kobe Bryant’s death. After a while, the YouTuber lost his whole channel in under 10 min. To this day, more people are catching onto the fake ads and the counterfeit animations and click bate’s; however, a lot of children are clicking the ads and falling into there traps.

At this point, the world doesn’t know the word “secret” anymore since everyone is eavesdropping over everything. For example, the Talking Tom/Angela game. The game was taken down due to the fact it got kids to tell them personal information.. I feel that Computational Propaganda leads to the result of campaigns of disbelief. Just a couple of facts to make the whole world twisted with lies.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
