Application: The Impact of Controversy
Controversies often bring together individuals with varying
opinions and backgrounds. Although controversy is often
considered negative, there can be positive outcomes for those
involved as well. To work within American government is to
work within controversy. How individuals or representatives of
organizations respond to controversy can influence public
opinion, elections, and, ultimately, public policy.
For this assignment, review the controversies presented in the
news broadcast in the virtual community of New Harbor. Think
about which of the controversies has the most impact on the role
you adopted for this course. Keep in mind that, while the
controversies may not directly involve your role, any
controversy in a community impacts, positively or negatively,
all members and organizations within that community.
To prepare for this assignment:
Review the article, "We Can't Handle the Truth." Consider the
media and public reaction to the controversies recounted in the
article and how the controversies impacted political campaigns
and individual political careers.
Review this week's news broadcast in the virtual community,
focusing on the impact of the controversies covered.
Consider how each controversy specifically impacts your role in
the virtual community, and decide which controversy has the
strongest and most direct impact on your role.
The assignment (2 pages):
Select one of the controversies from this week's news broadcast
in the virtual community.
Explain how this controversy might impact your role both
positively and negatively.
Explain the steps you would take, or advise your candidate or
organization to take, in order to address and/or mitigate this
controversy.
Support your Application Assignment with specific references
to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to
provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the
Learning Resources for this course.
