Media and Morality: Investigating the Connections
Please accept this special invitation to attend the BEA Research Symposium at our up-coming Conference, next month.
Our Symposium Chair is Ron Tamborini, Michigan State. The topic is, “Media and Morality.”
The leading researchers from across the nation will be examining the relationship between media and morality has been a lasting concern among broadcast scholars and practitioners. Does morality play a part in how audience members select, interpret and respond to media content. Can media alter moral values? The challenge to answering such questions is enhanced by the complex nature of morality itself.
This symposium joins leading scholars in efforts to clarify both simple and complex processes that shape the reciprocal influences that connect media and morality. Invited panels, competitive papers, and a keynote address will set the course for future understanding of these connections.
