Landmark cases have been able to shape the development of freedoms in the idea that freedom of speech has continuously been put in check to ascertain whether there is a need for improvement or not. If so, they outline the steps to be lawfully followed to ensure these freedoms are not manipulated to undermine their importance within a legal bracket. Some of the landmark cases that impacted digital communication in a significant manner are New York Times v Sullivan, Reno v. ACLU, and Brandenburg v Ohio.
Reno v. ACLU
The Reno v. ACLU case involved an assessment of the Communications Decency Act of 1996. This case provided the needed criminal course of action against any individual that used the internet to transfer obscene messages, which are general messages that are indecent (Marano, 2017). This was explicitly when the transferor the message itself involved a minor (A person under 18 years). Therefore, Congress came up with an agreeable vote to pass the Communications Decency Act to curb the issue of pornography. CLU, however, argued that the act contained elements of unconstitutionality (Djavaherian, 1998). And it was based on this argument the supreme court ruled the act as a violation of the First Amendment right to speech. The idea behind this argument was that it was a content-based restriction.
The case brought changes in the communication industry. One of the major supreme court cases directly linked the past of communication, especially in the digital platform, to the future. Arguably, any court ruling may have an upside as well as a downside, especially if it involves opening the doors to freedoms but limiting some notions of morality. The case made a solid ground from which the law recognized the freedom of speech; from this case, the freedom was further given a broader scope to work on. It is also worth considering that this case ushered in the idea of self-expression without limiting oneself to what others find as right. The case allowed people to act in their capacity; this was the basic foundation of freedom of speech for future generations.
New York Times v Sullivan
The case was mainly a prominent aspect of promoting freedom of speech. The case created a platform from which newspapers could go in-depth and chase a story irrespective of where it took them. Sullivan sued the New York Times for defamation in an ad by the Newspaper. However, the Newspaper argued that they did not desire to tarnish Sullivan's identity when the ad was posted. An Alabama court awarded Mr. Sullivan $500,000 worth of damages to be paid in good time by the New York Times (Wasserman, 2012). The Newspaper, however, made an appeal in the supreme court, in which case the supreme court declared that the case would favor the Newspaper. This was because for the suit to stand, Mr. Sullivan would have to prove that the Newspaper intentionally used information that ...
This document discusses landmark Supreme Court cases that helped define what types of speech are protected by the First Amendment. It focuses on New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, which established that public officials must prove "actual malice" to win a libel suit over criticisms of their official conduct. The document also discusses Birdsong v. Curtis Publishing Co., which further confirmed citizens' rights to criticize government failures. These cases helped establish criteria for determining libel and differentiated protections for public and private figures. The document stresses the importance of journalists presenting information truthfully, accurately, and without malicious intent while avoiding harm.
New york times v. sullivan supreme court decision freedom of speech or a lice...Alexander Decker
This document summarizes and discusses the 1964 Supreme Court case New York Times Co. v. Sullivan. In that case, the Supreme Court ruled that under the First Amendment, public officials cannot sue for libel unless they can prove "actual malice." The document argues that this decision went too far in protecting false speech. It asserts that truth should be the determining factor for freedom of speech, even regarding public officials. While the decision supported the civil rights movement at the time, it undermines the public's right to truthful information and encourages the publication of falsehoods without legal consequences. The precedent set by this case has weakened accountability and trust between the media and the public.
The document discusses the different views that Christians and Jews have regarding the term "Messiah". While Christians believe that Jesus fulfilled the Jewish prophecies of the Messiah, Jews still await the coming of the Messiah who they believe will deliver them from oppression and glorify God's name. There is disagreement between the two faiths about whether Jesus was the promised Messiah foretold in Jewish scripture.
The document discusses the tort of privacy in English law. It provides background on how privacy has been protected through the traditional tort of breach of confidence. It then summarizes the current law, which uses a two-part test to determine if there was a reasonable expectation of privacy that outweighs freedom of expression rights. Remedies for violations include injunctions to prevent publication or damages awards.
This document provides an overview of journalism law in the United States. It discusses how the First Amendment protects press freedoms but is not unlimited, covering issues like censorship, libel, obscenity, and invasion of privacy. It also outlines reporter's privilege and shield laws, as well as freedom of information laws governing access to public records and meetings. The future of these laws as they apply to online journalism is uncertain.
The document discusses the development of privacy law and the tort of invasion of privacy under English common law. It outlines how:
1) English courts initially did not recognize a common law right to privacy, as seen in cases like Kaye v Robertson, but the law has since developed to protect privacy.
2) The tort of breach of confidence emerged to protect private information, and courts began relating it to an individual's right to privacy.
3) Landmark cases like Douglas v Hello! Ltd expanded the doctrine of confidentiality and recognized individuals' privacy rights over unauthorized photographs.
4) English privacy tort law has been guided by both domestic precedents and the European Convention on Human Rights, balancing privacy rights

(U) WHAT INSIGHTS ARE DERIVED FROM OPERATION ANACONDA IN REGARDS TMoseStaton39
(U) WHAT INSIGHTS ARE DERIVED FROM OPERATION ANACONDA IN REGARDS TO THE NCO COMMON CORE COMPENTENCY (NCOCCC) OF OPERATIONS?
The NCOCCC of Operations is a combination of operational skill sets that, when mastered by senior leaders can save lives and ensure effective unified action. Some of its key tenets include: Large-scale combat operations; understanding operational and mission variables; resolving complex, ill-structured problems with the use of Mission Command; and understanding how to integrate the different branches of the military into successful joint operations (Department of the Army [DA], 2020, pp. 2-3). This final principle of conducting joint operations becomes increasingly important as contemporary conflicts continue to venture further into the realm of multi-domain warfare (Marr, 2018, pp. 10-11). In order to execute such a complex task, Joint Force Commanders (JFC) must “integrate, synchronize, and direct joint operations” through the use of seven Joint Functions (Joint Chiefs of Staff [JCS], 2017, p. III-1). One of these functions, Command and Control, is how the JFC directs the forces toward accomplishment of the mission, and its essential task is to “Communicate and ensure the flow of information across the staff and joint force” (JCS, 2017, p. III-2). This task is critical to the creation of a shared understanding, which allows the separate branches to work seamlessly together toward a common goal. The absence of this unifying component hinders missions and increases casualties. In Operation ANACONDA, JFC Major General (MG) Hagenbeck failed to create such a shared understanding with his subordinate Air Force assets, which contributed to increasing the amount of casualties his forces incurred. Although the warning order was published on 6 January, MG Hagenbeck did not notify the Combined Force Air Component Commander of Operation ANACONDA until 23 February, just days before the operation began (Fleri et al., 2003). This failure to ensure the flow of information across the joint force, caused downstream effects in planning and preparation that led to diminished air support during the initial stages of the operation. As noted by Lambeth (2005) in his comprehensive analysis, “because so little air support had been requested…coalition troops entered the fight virtually unprotected by any preparatory and suppressive fire” (pp. 204-205). Operation Anaconda provides a clear case of how proficiency in the realm of Operations can result in fewer U.S. casualties.

(Remarks)
Please keep in mind that the assignment states, "Each of your sections’ content must be at least one full page in length, in Times New Roman 12-pt. font, double-spaced, with 1” margins." When you turn something in that is about half of the required length, you take a bit of a double hit. The first hit is for not meeting minimum expectations for the assignment. The second hit is for not going into as much detail as needed to get a high grade. I can see that you are ahead on the sections. That is not a problem as those have not been graded yet. However, understand that as is, they will also have significant point deductions.

TITLE
According to the market analysis of Walmart, the retail firm is considered an unstoppable retail force. It is ranked as the first or number retail firm and the largest business organization in revenue and employee size. The company's total number of employees is estimated to be 2.2 million employees across its different stores. Apart from the retail business line, it also undertakes wholesale business activities (Tan, 2017). It provides all types of assortment merchandise as well as services for affordable costs. In this research paper, the main objective is to undertake a cash flow analysis statement of Walmart and its Relevance to its investors (Tan, 2017).
A cash flow statement is an important financial statement. A cash flow statement is understood as the financial statement that summarizes the financial or cash amounts. It is a summary of the amount in cash and cash equivalents (Murphy, 2021). In other words, it reflects the amount of cash entering and leaving an organization. The cash flow statement provides measures of a company’s financial strength and reflects its position in terms of revenue (Murphy, 2021). Besides, it helps investors to make the right financial decision.
The cash flow statement is an important financial document to investors. Investors always have a trait of looking at how a company is performing by evaluating the progress, the trends among other issues, and deciding whether to invest in the company. Investment decision-making in an in-depth analysis is usually achieved by looking at the cash flow performance based on an analysis of different elements of the statement.
The cash flow statement for Walmart is an important document to its investors. The cash flow statement of Walmart is an important measure of the profitability of the company. Besides, it provides investors with a clear picture and future projection outlook of how the company will be. Based on the analysis of the company’s cash flow statement company has been recording high levels of revenue over the past few years. As a result, it has been ranked as the largest company in terms of revenue collected. Such a specific entity of the company is a clear reflection that Walmart is indeed a profitable firm in profitability (Tan, 2017). Hence, it is a clear reflection to the investors that the company is making money instead of losses. For instance, over the past few years, the company has recorded a revenue increment and stability. The economic analysis measures the company revenue growth in terms of net sales changes to be 7.2% (WMT | Walmart Inc. Annual Cash Flow Statement | Market Watch. Market Watch, 2021). Such a growth rate is indeed admirable and attractive to investors searching for companies to invest in. The company's revenue level is a general overview and clear or direct instant and r ...

The gender distinction reflects what we see as appropriate “masculine” or “feminine.” For example, some societies expect men to be more aggressive and competitive and women to be emotionally nurturing. I was playing with dolls one day and was playing with two dolls: a female doll and a male doll. Upon passing by, an uncle of mine saw me playing with my toys and frowned. When I asked what was wrong, he seemed uncomfortable. In this statement, he suggested that girls should act like girls and play with girlie things, while boys should play with boy things, including boy dolls. The family experiences that taught me about gender and gender roles are vividly in my memory. Throughout my childhood, my mother and father stressed how essential it is for me to understand and know that I am a girl, and I should always act and carry myself accordingly.
I found conversations like that to be overly exaggerated at the time, but I subsequently understood why my parents did what they did. We were a family of six, with five girls and one boy. As a child, my parents, specifically my mother, stressed what clothing the girls wore. Our mother was always careful not to let us wear anything provocative, and we were to get married and have our own families. Girls are often told that it's alright to cry because girls cry, and if I was a boy, I'd be made to suck it up and deal with it. In addition, my mother taught me that women nurture and that we take care of the home, including cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children. As girls, we could not play any sports that were deemed "too rough" or to be performed by boys. From a young age, we chose professional careers. All these careers involved female dominating industries, such as nursing, teaching, caretaking, and hairdressing. They all contributed to the construction of my gender.
Multiple ways are available to conceptualize gender; essentialists see it as a binary division, which classifies you as male or female at birth. In contrast, mainstream social scientists take a constructionist approach to gender. Page 242 argues that gender is a constructed concept that has been shaped through culture and history. Finally, people internalize the social expectations they are introduced to.(Ferris & Stein, 2020) (Links to an external site.)

(Monica) A summary of my decision-making process starts with flippMoseStaton39
(Monica) A summary of my decision-making process starts with flipping through ads to find a job, I was concerned with what companies offered for pay, the type of work I would be doing, and how long would the job last. There were a few companies that were only looking to hire temporarily and again not an ideal situation if I am already concerned with having a steady income. Between the three ads, Office temp, a server at a restaurant making $2.13hr plus tips with hours varying, and a warehouse position, starting at $14Hr with hours from 12 pm to 7 pm. I chose to pick the warehouse position since it offers the most money and a set schedule. Continuing with the simulation, my monthly take-home pay after taxes is $1,224, making my weekly pay only $306. Ideally $1,224 is not enough funds to help sustain a family, barely one person. During this time, I have to pick my insurance, which is a requirement through the Affordable Care Act. Luckily my child is covered and I picked the cheapest plan that I could afford, the bronze plan and it costs $303 a month, which averages to almost $76 a paycheck. I have to ensure I have a place to live, paying rent over $720 and traveling puts my monthly rental and traveling costs at more than 800 dollars a month. The results of me living further away from my job, so that my rent is lower also increased gas costs. According to the simulation, every working household that saves a dollar spends 77 cents on transportation. My balance jumps from $1000 to $192 after paying rent only to find out my apartment is too small for my things, so I chose to have a yard sale. I only made $150 from the yard sale and made the decision to get paid by the piece, since I am barely making a living wage on an hourly paycheck, and in doing so my paycheck decreased by 25cents. I skipped my grandfather’s memorial service because I can not afford to travel, I paid $25 to replace a broken item I fixed, even though considered hiding the evidence. Grocery shopping is next on my to-do list, spending only 30 for things I needed, I felt was hardly enough food, but could not really afford to splurge and spend on extra things. During this time my stress levels are at an all-time high, but I turn the offer for a cigarette down because I do not want to get addicted. As a result, the simulation states there is a misconception that smoking relieves stress during difficult situations in life.
Now that I have come to payday, I decided to start my fitness journey by asking a friend to be my running partner. On the way to work, something blew in the car and needed to get fixed, and asking a friend to look at the issue saved money. The landlord decided to raise rent and $150 had to be paid or I could spend more on legal fees fighting it in court. On the way out to work, someone stole my gas from my car, so I had to make the decision to take the bus and the result where it took me three buses and fives times longer to get there, making me miss a few hours of p ...

ANOVA
ANOVA
• Analysis of Variance
• Statistical method to analyzes variances to determine if the means from more than
two populations are the same
• compare the between-sample-variation to the within-sample-variation
• If the between-sample-variation is sufficiently large compared to the within-sample-
variation it is likely that the population means are statistically different
• Compares means (group differences) among levels of factors. No
assumptions are made regarding how the factors are related
• Residual related assumptions are the same as with simple regression
• Explanatory variables can be qualitative or quantitative but are categorized
for group investigations. These variables are often referred to as factors
with levels (category levels)
ANOVA Assumptions
• Assume populations , from which the response values for the groups
are drawn, are normally distributed
• Assumes populations have equal variances
• Can compare the ratio of smallest and largest sample standard deviations.
Between .05 and 2 are typically not considered evidence of a violation
assumption
• Assumes the response data are independent
• For large sample sizes, or for factor level sample sizes that are equal,
the ANOVA test is robust to assumption violations of normality and
unequal variances
ANOVA and Variance
Fixed or Random Factors
• A factor is fixed if its levels are chosen before the ANOVA investigation
begins
• Difference in groups are only investigated for the specific pre-selected factors
and levels
• A factor is random if its levels are choosen randomly from the
population before the ANOVA investigation begins
Randomization
• Assigning subjects to treatment groups or treatments to subjects
randomly reduces the chance of bias selecting results

(Kaitlyn)To be very honest I know next to nothing about mythology,MoseStaton39
(Kaitlyn)To be very honest I know next to nothing about mythology, it has never been something that I have had around me or taught in school, I guess it was one of those subjects that got kind of, overlooked. But history is history and in my opinion, it’s important to know what happened in the past to prevent future mishaps or wrongdoings. Therefore I don't know anything about mythology to start, but I am eager to learn more about all these different gods, goddesses, etc., and am surprised to find out that entire towns or civilizations would support the myths or people I am reading about.
The gods and goddesses seem to all have their sanction of what was claimed as their own, one wraps his arms around the earth floating the continents with his aqua arms, and another is essentially the undertaker and decides whose soul belongs where. The people are peasants and they are unequal to those that are considered the higher power, they are the protected and shall not reach out to become a protector. From what I have read it doesn't seem like the gods step on each other’s territory or have competitions to push each other out, it seems as though all that made it up there are respected and get to look down on those that are less than them.
While reading I noticed that there is a bit of a divide between men and women the same as we have today. A big part of societal issues today is gender equality and the general outlook on how each gender is portrayed without any prior information. Men are supposed to be large, strong, and tall, to protect and conquer for the interest of mankind. Women are supposed to be dainty and spread love, make a house a home, and show endearing qualities. I can see the reverse argument for Cupid who is the God of Love being that Eros is a male, being portrayed as the, "fairest of the deathless gods," (Hamilton, 36) but that is one instance in an array of different people. It seems that even though we have come a long way to today with working on gender-specific stereotypes, for these "myths" to be ancient and long ago, it doesn't seem like we have come that far. Yes women are seen as loving and they can be attractive to people around them, but in the man’s brain, they are simply there to be of service to the man, and to man the home when they are not present. It's interesting because even though the language of the reading may be hard for me to get used to, being that it is not in modern English, I can still very well understand one thing. Women like Aphrodite would "...[laugh] sweetly or mockingly at those her wiles had conquered, the irresistible goddess who stole away even the wits of the wise" (Hamilton, 32). Being a woman I translated this to essentially smiling in the faces of those who either are factually in the wrong, or have done wrong to you, and that is something that is still very much alive today. From history, we know that women were seen as property or disposable at the discretion of the man that homed her, and f ...
(Harry)Dante’s Inferno is the first of the three-part epic poem, DMoseStaton39
(Harry)Dante’s Inferno is the first of the three-part epic poem, Divine Comedy, written by Dante Alighieri. The Inferno depicts Dante’s journey through Hell, accompanied and guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. In his poem, Dante describes Hell’s topography consisting of nine circles, each representing the seriousness of the sin committed by its offenders, these sins are categorized (by the Catholic Church), grouped, and commonly known as the nine deadly sins. Each level of Hell represent places of torment where the first level is home to less serious offenders, and increase in severity in each circle. As they go deeper into each level, our characters, Dante and Virgil encounter offenders within each ring of hell who have committed more serious offenses and the sins are more egregious. We find that the lowest part of hell houses the betrayers, and punishment here is more severe. Punishment in the poem is handed out in a poetic justice fashion Dante calls contrapasso. In this last (deepest) level or ring of Hell the betrayers of Julius Caesar: Brutus and Cassius are prime tenants, along with Judas, who had betrayed Jesus.
As I read this poem, I can agree with how Hell was organized, and as it sits currently, those guilty of child sexual abuse could reside along with those who are being tortured in the second circle: Lust. But Dante seemed to portray these sins as less severe. But personally, I think that those guilty of committing child sexual abuse should be in the ninth circle of Hell, along with those committing treachery because what is child sexual abuse if not treachery! It is treacherous against the innocent children, who fall betrayed by those who they must respect and obey (adults or those older then they), it is an act of treason to the victim who may have trusted the person committing such a heinous act. But after much contemplation, I still cannot agree with this placement. Child sexual abuse and child sexual assault is, in a very real way, equal to those types of betrayals. The innocence of a child makes those crimes so bad that I feel so uncomfortable writing about. As defined on their website, child sexual abuse includes: any sexual act between an adult and a minor, or between two minors, when one exerts power over the other, forcing, coercing or persuading a child to engage in any type of sexual act, non-contact acts such as exhibitionism, exposure to pornography, voyeurism, and communicating in a sexual manner by phone or Internet. In Dante’s world, those guilty of child sexual assault are far more wicked than those guilty of other sexual sins, and even worse than those guilty of aberrant sexual behavior (as it was understood at the time). Therefore, these sinners would have their very own special place below the ninth circle.
For sinners tormented in the tenth circle, the torture must be as gruesome as the act committed by the sinners. For someone who has committed such a abominable act as is child sexual abuse, assault, ...
(Lucious)Many steps in the systems development process may cause aMoseStaton39
(Lucious)Many steps in the systems development process may cause a project to balloon out of control, affecting the scope's size, where the budget and timeline remain the same. Unfortunately, this is a widespread problem known as scope creep during an IS development. Scope creep is an unexpected demand that moves a project past its predetermined limits. Projects are always documented with a planning outline, which covers in-depth details on boundaries, schedules, major deliverables, time, and budget. Unfortunately, individuals involved in the project may intentionally or unintentionally cause a project to not meet its goals due to the unpredictable nature of adding tasks to a project in progress. Project managers can ensure that the scope is clear by referring to the project planning outline, where all the boundaries and parameters of the project stipulate all deliverables. Spending extra time finalizing the plan can dial in a clear and detailed scope for everyone involved in the project. A project manager needs to engage directly with the clients by speaking with them and thoroughly walking them through all the parameters and deliverables. Closely collaborating with clients throughout the various stages of the project can prevent hiccups that may occur. If issues arise during project development, it is always best to be transparent with the client about every problem. Being able to work through solutions with clients will ease the anxieties as strategies are planned. To ensure deliverables are to the client's expectations, necessary features should be identified as critical for delivering a usable end product. For example, managing a scope creep can be difficult if not handled correctly. However, managing change in a project development does not have to be a battle of wills. Knowing how to address change can be beneficial. It can be outlined in the project planning document with parameters that will deliver the best product for the client without derailing the project.

(ELI)At the time when I first had to take a sociology class in higMoseStaton39
(ELI)At the time when I first had to take a sociology class in high school, I was staunchly anti-feminism, as I felt it was unnecessary in first world countries and primarily focused on encouraging immodesty and considering women to be worth more than men. At that time, my only education on feminism or feminist issues had come from my parents during homeschooling. I clearly remember getting into a heated debate with a classmate whom I considered "the feminist equivalent of a vegan," (referring to the stereotypical joke, "How do you know if someone is a vegan? Don't worry, they'll tell you,") and I told her I simply could not see any situations in real life where women aren't being represented without a real reason. She introduced me to the term Bechdel Test, and encouraged me to spend a few weeks watching my usual shows, but counting how many times the female characters spoke to each other about anything other than men.
As my understanding of feminism and of the world around me has evolved, I have seen an increase in media that passes the Bechdel Test, but have also been surprised to find it is significantly less common than I expected. Additionally, the Bechdel Test only looks at named female characters who discuss something other than men. It does not look at factors of race, sexuality, topics of conversation, or visual presentation. Some argue that although media increasingly passes the test, the quality of that media is lacking and therefore the value of the Bechdel Test does not hold up (How does the Bechdel Test measure up in evaluating film representations of women, 2021). More detailed studies show that women remain underrepresented in media, both behind and before the camera (Smith et. al, 2016). The female characters that are portrayed in trend towards being young and traditionally attractive, reinforcing the "ideal" image as the standard and further raising the standard for the average woman. Additionally, women of color and women belonging to other racial or social minority groups are even less visible, impacting the expectations that society has of women based on how they are shown, and influencing what women consider "normal" in themselves.

(Executive Summary)MedStar Health Inc, a leader in the healthcMoseStaton39
(Executive Summary)
MedStar Health Inc, a leader in the healthcare industry regionally and nation-wide, is a constant target of the malicious attempts of cyber criminals. Over the past 6 years MedStar Health Inc. has faced several instances of data breach most notably, the 2016 breach that compromised 370 computer systems and halted its operations. As the organization continues to digitize and broaden the use of electronic medical records across its facilities, the threat of cyber-attack remains even more pervasive. The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of MedStar Health Inc cybersecurity vulnerabilities, examine the overall causes and impact of the breaches and explore solutions to meet the organization’s cybersecurity challenges.
With a focal point on MedStar Health breaches, a literature-based study was conducted, and various news articles, academic journals and company publications were analyzed. It was found that the 2016 and 2020 data breaches were attacks on the organization’s internet servers. The 2020 hack compromised the records of 668 patients, whereas the 2016 hack was a result of a ransomware infection that compromised 7500 individuals’ records and halted the organizations’ operations. The cost of the virus infection was greater than the $19,000 ransom requested due to additional recovery and remediation costs. It was also revealed that the 2019 breach was due to human error.
To best combat the efforts of cyber criminals, it is recommended that MedStar Health Inc. place greater emphasis on cyber awareness training for employees/professionals, implementing multiple factor authentications and a strong password and identity management system to reinforce its IT infrastructure against future hacks. Failure to effectuate these measures pose significant risk to MedStar Health Inc., its affiliates and patients that extend beyond ransom payments, fines, imprisonment, lawsuits and costs incurred for subsequent identity theft protection services. The damage caused by data security breaches may prove fatal for patients, the company’s most valued asset, compromising public perception and the company’s mission to provide the highest quality of medical care and build long-term relationships with the patients they serve.)

(U) WHAT INSIGHTS ARE DERIVED FROM OPERATION ANACONDA IN REGARDS TMoseStaton39
(U) WHAT INSIGHTS ARE DERIVED FROM OPERATION ANACONDA IN REGARDS TO THE NCO COMMON CORE COMPENTENCY (NCOCCC) OF OPERATIONS?
The NCOCCC of Operations is a combination of operational skill sets that, when mastered by senior leaders can save lives and ensure effective unified action. Some of its key tenets include: Large-scale combat operations; understanding operational and mission variables; resolving complex, ill-structured problems with the use of Mission Command; and understanding how to integrate the different branches of the military into successful joint operations (Department of the Army [DA], 2020, pp. 2-3). This final principle of conducting joint operations becomes increasingly important as contemporary conflicts continue to venture further into the realm of multi-domain warfare (Marr, 2018, pp. 10-11). In order to execute such a complex task, Joint Force Commanders (JFC) must “integrate, synchronize, and direct joint operations” through the use of seven Joint Functions (Joint Chiefs of Staff [JCS], 2017, p. III-1). One of these functions, Command and Control, is how the JFC directs the forces toward accomplishment of the mission, and its essential task is to “Communicate and ensure the flow of information across the staff and joint force” (JCS, 2017, p. III-2). This task is critical to the creation of a shared understanding, which allows the separate branches to work seamlessly together toward a common goal. The absence of this unifying component hinders missions and increases casualties. In Operation ANACONDA, JFC Major General (MG) Hagenbeck failed to create such a shared understanding with his subordinate Air Force assets, which contributed to increasing the amount of casualties his forces incurred. Although the warning order was published on 6 January, MG Hagenbeck did not notify the Combined Force Air Component Commander of Operation ANACONDA until 23 February, just days before the operation began (Fleri et al., 2003). This failure to ensure the flow of information across the joint force, caused downstream effects in planning and preparation that led to diminished air support during the initial stages of the operation. As noted by Lambeth (2005) in his comprehensive analysis, “because so little air support had been requested…coalition troops entered the fight virtually unprotected by any preparatory and suppressive fire” (pp. 204-205). Operation Anaconda provides a clear case of how proficiency in the realm of Operations can result in fewer U.S. casualties.

When you turn something in that is about half of the required length, you take a bit of a double hit. The first hit is for not meeting minimum expectations for the assignment. The second hit is for not going into as much detail as needed to get a high grade. I can see that you are ahead on the sections. That is not a problem as those have not been graded yet.

TITLE
According to the market analysis of Walmart, the retail firm is considered an unstoppable retail force. It is ranked as the first or number retail firm and the largest business organization in revenue and employee size. The company's total number of employees is estimated to be 2.2 million employees across its different stores. Apart from the retail business line, it also undertakes wholesale business activities (Tan, 2017). It provides all types of assortment merchandise as well as services for affordable costs. In this research paper, the main objective is to undertake a cash flow analysis statement of Walmart and its Relevance to its investors (Tan, 2017).
A cash flow statement is an important financial statement. A cash flow statement is understood as the financial statement that summarizes the financial or cash amounts. It is a summary of the amount in cash and cash equivalents (Murphy, 2021). In other words, it reflects the amount of cash entering and leaving an organization. The cash flow statement provides measures of a company’s financial strength and reflects its position in terms of revenue (Murphy, 2021). Besides, it helps investors to make the right financial decision.
The cash flow statement is an important financial document to investors. Investors always have a trait of looking at how a company is performing by evaluating the progress, the trends among other issues, and deciding whether to invest in the company. Investment decision-making in an in-depth analysis is usually achieved by looking at the cash flow performance based on an analysis of different elements of the statement.
The cash flow statement for Walmart is an important document to its investors. The cash flow statement of Walmart is an important measure of the profitability of the company. Besides, it provides investors with a clear picture and future projection outlook of how the company will be. Based on the analysis of the company’s cash flow statement company has been recording high levels of revenue over the past few years. As a result, it has been ranked as the largest company in terms of revenue collected. Such a specific entity of the company is a clear reflection that Walmart is indeed a profitable firm in profitability (Tan, 2017). Hence, it is a clear reflection to the investors that the company is making money instead of losses. For instance, over the past few years, the company has recorded a revenue increment and stability. The economic analysis measures the company revenue growth in terms of net sales changes to be 7.2% (WMT | Walmart Inc. Annual Cash Flow Statement | Market Watch. Market Watch, 2021). Such a growth rate is indeed admirable and attractive to investors searching for companies to invest in. The company's revenue level is a general overview and clear or direct instant and r ...

(Monica)Gender rarely shapes individual experience in isolation buMoseStaton39
(Monica)Gender rarely shapes individual experience in isolation but is instead linked to other social statuses in the effects it has on our lives. The gender distinction reflects what we see as appropriate “masculine” or “feminine.” For example, some societies expect men to be more aggressive and competitive and women to be emotionally nurturing. I was playing with dolls one day and was playing with two dolls: a female doll and a male doll. Upon passing by, an uncle of mine saw me playing with my toys and frowned. When I asked what was wrong, he seemed uncomfortable. In this statement, he suggested that girls should act like girls and play with girlie things, while boys should play with boy things, including boy dolls. The family experiences that taught me about gender and gender roles are vividly in my memory. Throughout my childhood, my mother and father stressed how essential it is for me to understand and know that I am a girl, and I should always act and carry myself accordingly.
I found conversations like that to be overly exaggerated at the time, but I subsequently understood why my parents did what they did. We were a family of six, with five girls and one boy. As a child, my parents, specifically my mother, stressed what clothing the girls wore. Our mother was always careful not to let us wear anything provocative, and we were to get married and have our own families. Girls are often told that it's alright to cry because girls cry, and if I was a boy, I'd be made to suck it up and deal with it. In addition, my mother taught me that women nurture and that we take care of the home, including cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children. As girls, we could not play any sports that were deemed "too rough" or to be performed by boys. From a young age, we chose professional careers. All these careers involved female dominating industries, such as nursing, teaching, caretaking, and hairdressing. They all contributed to the construction of my gender.
Multiple ways are available to conceptualize gender; essentialists see it as a binary division, which classifies you as male or female at birth. In contrast, mainstream social scientists take a constructionist approach to gender. Page 242 argues that gender is a constructed concept that has been shaped through culture and history. Finally, people internalize the social expectations they are introduced to.(Ferris & Stein, 2020) (Links to an external site.)

(Monica) A summary of my decision-making process starts with flippMoseStaton39
(Monica) A summary of my decision-making process starts with flipping through ads to find a job, I was concerned with what companies offered for pay, the type of work I would be doing, and how long would the job last. There were a few companies that were only looking to hire temporarily and again not an ideal situation if I am already concerned with having a steady income. Between the three ads, Office temp, a server at a restaurant making $2.13hr plus tips with hours varying, and a warehouse position, starting at $14Hr with hours from 12 pm to 7 pm. I chose to pick the warehouse position since it offers the most money and a set schedule. Continuing with the simulation, my monthly take-home pay after taxes is $1,224, making my weekly pay only $306. Ideally $1,224 is not enough funds to help sustain a family, barely one person. During this time, I have to pick my insurance, which is a requirement through the Affordable Care Act. Luckily my child is covered and I picked the cheapest plan that I could afford, the bronze plan and it costs $303 a month, which averages to almost $76 a paycheck. I have to ensure I have a place to live, paying rent over $720 and traveling puts my monthly rental and traveling costs at more than 800 dollars a month. The results of me living further away from my job, so that my rent is lower also increased gas costs. According to the simulation, every working household that saves a dollar spends 77 cents on transportation. My balance jumps from $1000 to $192 after paying rent only to find out my apartment is too small for my things, so I chose to have a yard sale. I only made $150 from the yard sale and made the decision to get paid by the piece, since I am barely making a living wage on an hourly paycheck, and in doing so my paycheck decreased by 25cents. I skipped my grandfather’s memorial service because I can not afford to travel, I paid $25 to replace a broken item I fixed, even though considered hiding the evidence. Grocery shopping is next on my to-do list, spending only 30 for things I needed, I felt was hardly enough food, but could not really afford to splurge and spend on extra things. During this time my stress levels are at an all-time high, but I turn the offer for a cigarette down because I do not want to get addicted. As a result, the simulation states there is a misconception that smoking relieves stress during difficult situations in life.
Now that I have come to payday, I decided to start my fitness journey by asking a friend to be my running partner. On the way to work, something blew in the car and needed to get fixed, and asking a friend to look at the issue saved money. The landlord decided to raise rent and $150 had to be paid or I could spend more on legal fees fighting it in court. On the way out to work, someone stole my gas from my car, so I had to make the decision to take the bus and the result where it took me three buses and fives times longer to get there, making me miss a few hours of p ...

ANOVA
ANOVA
• Analysis of Variance
• Statistical method to analyzes variances to determine if the means from more than
two populations are the same
• compare the between-sample-variation to the within-sample-variation
• If the between-sample-variation is sufficiently large compared to the within-sample-
variation it is likely that the population means are statistically different
• Compares means (group differences) among levels of factors. No
assumptions are made regarding how the factors are related
• Residual related assumptions are the same as with simple regression
• Explanatory variables can be qualitative or quantitative but are categorized
for group investigations. These variables are often referred to as factors
with levels (category levels)
ANOVA Assumptions
• Assume populations , from which the response values for the groups
are drawn, are normally distributed
• Assumes populations have equal variances
• Can compare the ratio of smallest and largest sample standard deviations.
Between .05 and 2 are typically not considered evidence of a violation
assumption
• Assumes the response data are independent
• For large sample sizes, or for factor level sample sizes that are equal,
the ANOVA test is robust to assumption violations of normality and
unequal variances
ANOVA and Variance
Fixed or Random Factors
• A factor is fixed if its levels are chosen before the ANOVA investigation
begins
• Difference in groups are only investigated for the specific pre-selected factors
and levels
• A factor is random if its levels are choosen randomly from the
population before the ANOVA investigation begins
Randomization
• Assigning subjects to treatment groups or treatments to subjects
randomly reduces the chance of bias selecting results

(Kaitlyn)To be very honest I know next to nothing about mythology,MoseStaton39
(Kaitlyn)To be very honest I know next to nothing about mythology, it has never been something that I have had around me or taught in school, I guess it was one of those subjects that got kind of, overlooked. But history is history and in my opinion, it’s important to know what happened in the past to prevent future mishaps or wrongdoings. Therefore I don't know anything about mythology to start, but I am eager to learn more about all these different gods, goddesses, etc., and am surprised to find out that entire towns or civilizations would support the myths or people I am reading about.
The gods and goddesses seem to all have their sanction of what was claimed as their own, one wraps his arms around the earth floating the continents with his aqua arms, and another is essentially the undertaker and decides whose soul belongs where. The people are peasants and they are unequal to those that are considered the higher power, they are the protected and shall not reach out to become a protector. From what I have read it doesn't seem like the gods step on each other’s territory or have competitions to push each other out, it seems as though all that made it up there are respected and get to look down on those that are less than them.
While reading I noticed that there is a bit of a divide between men and women the same as we have today. A big part of societal issues today is gender equality and the general outlook on how each gender is portrayed without any prior information. Men are supposed to be large, strong, and tall, to protect and conquer for the interest of mankind. Women are supposed to be dainty and spread love, make a house a home, and show endearing qualities. I can see the reverse argument for Cupid who is the God of Love being that Eros is a male, being portrayed as the, "fairest of the deathless gods," (Hamilton, 36) but that is one instance in an array of different people. It seems that even though we have come a long way to today with working on gender-specific stereotypes, for these "myths" to be ancient and long ago, it doesn't seem like we have come that far. Yes women are seen as loving and they can be attractive to people around them, but in the man’s brain, they are simply there to be of service to the man, and to man the home when they are not present. It's interesting because even though the language of the reading may be hard for me to get used to, being that it is not in modern English, I can still very well understand one thing. Women like Aphrodite would "...[laugh] sweetly or mockingly at those her wiles had conquered, the irresistible goddess who stole away even the wits of the wise" (Hamilton, 32). Being a woman I translated this to essentially smiling in the faces of those who either are factually in the wrong, or have done wrong to you, and that is something that is still very much alive today. From history, we know that women were seen as property or disposable at the discretion of the man that homed her, and f ...
(Harry)Dante’s Inferno is the first of the three-part epic poem, DMoseStaton39
(Harry)Dante’s Inferno is the first of the three-part epic poem, Divine Comedy, written by Dante Alighieri. The Inferno depicts Dante’s journey through Hell, accompanied and guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. In his poem, Dante describes Hell’s topography consisting of nine circles, each representing the seriousness of the sin committed by its offenders, these sins are categorized (by the Catholic Church), grouped, and commonly known as the nine deadly sins. Each level of Hell represent places of torment where the first level is home to less serious offenders, and increase in severity in each circle. As they go deeper into each level, our characters, Dante and Virgil encounter offenders within each ring of hell who have committed more serious offenses and the sins are more egregious. We find that the lowest part of hell houses the betrayers, and punishment here is more severe. Punishment in the poem is handed out in a poetic justice fashion Dante calls contrapasso. In this last (deepest) level or ring of Hell the betrayers of Julius Caesar: Brutus and Cassius are prime tenants, along with Judas, who had betrayed Jesus.
As I read this poem, I can agree with how Hell was organized, and as it sits currently, those guilty of child sexual abuse could reside along with those who are being tortured in the second circle: Lust. But Dante seemed to portray these sins as less severe. But personally, I think that those guilty of committing child sexual abuse should be in the ninth circle of Hell, along with those committing treachery because what is child sexual abuse if not treachery! It is treacherous against the innocent children, who fall betrayed by those who they must respect and obey (adults or those older then they), it is an act of treason to the victim who may have trusted the person committing such a heinous act. But after much contemplation, I still cannot agree with this placement. Child sexual abuse and child sexual assault is, in a very real way, equal to those types of betrayals. The innocence of a child makes those crimes so bad that I feel so uncomfortable writing about. As defined on their website, child sexual abuse includes: any sexual act between an adult and a minor, or between two minors, when one exerts power over the other, forcing, coercing or persuading a child to engage in any type of sexual act, non-contact acts such as exhibitionism, exposure to pornography, voyeurism, and communicating in a sexual manner by phone or Internet. In Dante’s world, those guilty of child sexual assault are far more wicked than those guilty of other sexual sins, and even worse than those guilty of aberrant sexual behavior (as it was understood at the time). Therefore, these sinners would have their very own special place below the ninth circle.
For sinners tormented in the tenth circle, the torture must be as gruesome as the act committed by the sinners. For someone who has committed such a abominable act as is child sexual abuse, assault, ...
(Lucious)Many steps in the systems development process may cause aMoseStaton39
(Lucious)Many steps in the systems development process may cause a project to balloon out of control, affecting the scope's size, where the budget and timeline remain the same. Unfortunately, this is a widespread problem known as scope creep during an IS development. Scope creep is an unexpected demand that moves a project past its predetermined limits. Projects are always documented with a planning outline, which covers in-depth details on boundaries, schedules, major deliverables, time, and budget. Unfortunately, individuals involved in the project may intentionally or unintentionally cause a project to not meet its goals due to the unpredictable nature of adding tasks to a project in progress. Project managers can ensure that the scope is clear by referring to the project planning outline, where all the boundaries and parameters of the project stipulate all deliverables. Spending extra time finalizing the plan can dial in a clear and detailed scope for everyone involved in the project. A project manager needs to engage directly with the clients by speaking with them and thoroughly walking them through all the parameters and deliverables. Closely collaborating with clients throughout the various stages of the project can prevent hiccups that may occur. If issues arise during project development, it is always best to be transparent with the client about every problem. Being able to work through solutions with clients will ease the anxieties as strategies are planned. To ensure deliverables are to the client's expectations, necessary features should be identified as critical for delivering a usable end product. For example, managing a scope creep can be difficult if not handled correctly. However, managing change in a project development does not have to be a battle of wills. Knowing how to address change can be beneficial. It can be outlined in the project planning document with parameters that will deliver the best product for the client without derailing the project.

The document summarizes the history of Versare, a company that manufactures portable room partitions. It describes how Versare was initially dependent on a large distributor for 95% of its sales. Over time, the relationship with the distributor became increasingly contentious as the distributor demanded price cuts and changes to Versare's products. By 2005, Versare's profitability had declined significantly due to its reliance on the problematic distributor relationship.
(ELI)At the time when I first had to take a sociology class in higMoseStaton39
(ELI)At the time when I first had to take a sociology class in high school, I was staunchly anti-feminism, as I felt it was unnecessary in first world countries and primarily focused on encouraging immodesty and considering women to be worth more than men. At that time, my only education on feminism or feminist issues had come from my parents during homeschooling. I clearly remember getting into a heated debate with a classmate whom I considered "the feminist equivalent of a vegan," (referring to the stereotypical joke, "How do you know if someone is a vegan? Don't worry, they'll tell you,") and I told her I simply could not see any situations in real life where women aren't being represented without a real reason. She introduced me to the term Bechdel Test, and encouraged me to spend a few weeks watching my usual shows, but counting how many times the female characters spoke to each other about anything other than men.
As my understanding of feminism and of the world around me has evolved, I have seen an increase in media that passes the Bechdel Test, but have also been surprised to find it is significantly less common than I expected. Additionally, the Bechdel Test only looks at named female characters who discuss something other than men. It does not look at factors of race, sexuality, topics of conversation, or visual presentation. Some argue that although media increasingly passes the test, the quality of that media is lacking and therefore the value of the Bechdel Test does not hold up (How does the Bechdel Test measure up in evaluating film representations of women, 2021). More detailed studies show that women remain underrepresented in media, both behind and before the camera (Smith et. al, 2016). The female characters that are portrayed in trend towards being young and traditionally attractive, reinforcing the "ideal" image as the standard and further raising the standard for the average woman.

(Executive Summary)MedStar Health Inc, a leader in the healthcMoseStaton39
(Executive Summary)
MedStar Health Inc, a leader in the healthcare industry regionally and nation-wide, is a constant target of the malicious attempts of cyber criminals. Over the past 6 years MedStar Health Inc. has faced several instances of data breach most notably, the 2016 breach that compromised 370 computer systems and halted its operations. As the organization continues to digitize and broaden the use of electronic medical records across its facilities, the threat of cyber-attack remains even more pervasive. The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of MedStar Health Inc cybersecurity vulnerabilities, examine the overall causes and impact of the breaches and explore solutions to meet the organization’s cybersecurity challenges.
With a focal point on MedStar Health breaches, a literature-based study was conducted, and various news articles, academic journals and company publications were analyzed. It was found that the 2016 and 2020 data breaches were attacks on the organization’s internet servers. The 2020 hack compromised the records of 668 patients, whereas the 2016 hack was a result of a ransomware infection that compromised 7500 individuals’ records and halted the organizations’ operations. The cost of the virus infection was greater than the $19,000 ransom requested due to additional recovery and remediation costs. It was also revealed that the 2019 breach was due to human error.
To best combat the efforts of cyber criminals, it is recommended that MedStar Health Inc. place greater emphasis on cyber awareness training for employees/professionals, implementing multiple factor authentications and a strong password and identity management system to reinforce its IT infrastructure against future hacks. Failure to effectuate these measures pose significant risk to MedStar Health Inc., its affiliates and patients that extend beyond ransom payments, fines, imprisonment, lawsuits and costs incurred for subsequent identity theft protection services. The damage caused by data security breaches may prove fatal for patients, the company’s most valued asset, compromising public perception and the company’s mission to provide the highest quality of medical care and build long-term relationships with the patients they serve.)

MedStar Medical Vs. Cybercrime
In the health sector, experts "see persistent cyber-attacks as the single greatest threat to the protection of healthcare data" (Moffith & Steffen, 2017). To the world at large, this is not the most absurd news or revelation. Healthcare data embodies some of the most marketable information, and for the black market this is Eldorado – the fictional tale of the city of gold. Healthcare organizations are tasked with fighting the uphill battle of providing quality medical care to their number one stakeholder – patients – while also ensuring that their valuable information is kept safe and secure. Despite their efforts, healthcare organizations sometimes fail in ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Landmark Cases
Shawnette Howard
SNHU
2/13/2022
Landmark cases have been able to shape the development of
freedoms in the idea that freedom of speech has continuously
been put in check to ascertain whether there is a need for
improvement or not. If so, they outline the steps to be lawfully
followed to ensure these freedoms are not manipulated to
undermine their importance within a legal bracket. Some of the
landmark cases that impacted digital communication in a
significant manner are New York Times v Sullivan, Reno v.
ACLU, and Brandenburg v Ohio.
Reno v. ACLU
The Reno v. ACLU case involved an assessment of the
Communications Decency Act of 1996. This case provided the
2. needed criminal course of action against any individual that
used the internet to transfer obscene messages, which are
general messages that are indecent (Marano, 2017). This was
explicitly when the transferor the message itself involved a
minor (A person under 18 years). Therefore, Congress came up
with an agreeable vote to pass the Communications Decency Act
to curb the issue of pornography. CLU, however, argued that the
act contained elements of unconstitutionality (Djavaherian,
1998). And it was based on this argument the supreme court
ruled the act as a violation of the First Amendment right to
speech. The idea behind this argument was that it was a content-
based restriction.
The case brought changes in the communication industry. One
of the major supreme court cases directly linked the past of
communication, especially in the digital platform, to the future.
Arguably, any court ruling may have an upside as well as a
downside, especially if it involves opening the doors to
freedoms but limiting some notions of morality. The case made
a solid ground from which the law recognized the freedom of
speech; from this case, the freedom was further given a broader
scope to work on. It is also worth considering that this case
ushered in the idea of self-expression without limiting oneself
to what others find as right. The case allowed people to act in
their capacity; this was the basic foundation of freedom of
speech for future generations.
New York Times v Sullivan
The case was mainly a prominent aspect of promoting freedom
of speech. The case created a platform from which newspapers
could go in-depth and chase a story irrespective of where it took
them. Sullivan sued the New York Times for defamation in an
ad by the Newspaper. However, the Newspaper argued that they
did not desire to tarnish Sullivan's identity when the ad was
posted. An Alabama court awarded Mr. Sullivan $500,000 worth
of damages to be paid in good time by the New York Times
(Wasserman, 2012). The Newspaper, however, made an appeal
in the supreme court, in which case the supreme court declared
3. that the case would favor the Newspaper. This was because for
the suit to stand, Mr. Sullivan would have to prove that the
Newspaper intentionally used information that would cause
harm to his Image. In this aspect, he was unable to.
The case's ruling was an important landmark in digital
communication. It changed the media industry since it provided
media personalities with the right tools to go after stories,
especially ones related to influential and powerful people.
Through this ruling, the freedom of speech, especially in
publication, was ensured since people could now communicate
without fear of prosecution so long as such information is in
line with the idea of no purposeful intention to harm the subject
of the publication. Finally, it is essential to recognize that the
ruling was a stepping stone that ensured that publications in
different platforms such as digital platforms remained free of
influence by fear. This helps future digital publications to have
the backing needed as they make strides in story narration.
Brandenburg v Ohio
Brandenburg v Ohio was a case heard in 1969. The case became
an important benchmark because it involved the interpretation
of the First Amendment rights by the Supreme court.
Brandenburg had been convicted and given a 10years sentence
and a fine by a state court in Ohio (Field 2018). The state
appellate court affirmed this conviction. However, the supreme
court took to overrule the conviction since it was interpreted
that the first amendment stands in cases where speech was used
to advocate an illegal act as long as it is not likely to create
imminent lawlessness. These key details created the ideal
environment for people to voice their opinions on different
platforms.
The case is a landmark since it allows different individuals to
portray their opinions. The idea behind this landmark is that it
created a reasonable approach through which people can express
their opinion within the criteria that it does not directly apply
pressure on people to perfume illegal acts. The Digital
platforms have particularly embraced this aspect of the law
4. because such platforms contain people with diverse views.
Therefore, there is the rational expectation that at some points,
different individuals would react differently in the aspect of
what they say and how they say it. The case also helped shape
the room for future protests, especially those done on digital
platforms.
Best legal Practice
There must be ideal practices that can govern the freedom of
speech and the First Amendment rights of each individual using
any digital platform. The first Practice would be to avoid
sharing obscene materials on such platforms; this would ensure
that some kind of moral code remains in the daily activities
conducted digitally. Secondly, it would be an excellent legal
practice to consider the type of messages we post about other
people since this would ensure that the issue of defamation is
not a consequence of our actions. Generally, keenness when
writing about other people would be essential to consider; this
promotes respecting rights and freedom. Lastly, as an ideal
practice, it would be important that each individual creates
messages that do not cause harm or damage to those around
them to trigger a violent act, either in the workplace or outside
the workplace. The power of digital messaging could be a tool
to create harmony, yet it could also be abused to limit other
people's rights; it is, therefore, important that these practices be
put in place.

6. Selected Case: Death as content: Social responsibility and the
documentary film maker
Summary
The selected case talks about the social responsibility of
filmmakers; what responsibility they have towards the
community and society. The case talks about Eric Steele who is
a documentary film maker. The film maker filmed a
controversial documentary known as “the bridge” where he
covered Golden Gate bridge which is a leading suicide location
with different individuals travelling from around the world to
commit suicide there. The main issues that are presented in the
case are the motives and intentions of the film maker and what
role he should have played in saving lives (Wilkins et al.,
2021). I selected the case because it addresses a very important
topic, the social responsibility of film makers. It also talks
about a major legal issue; suicide which is considered as a
crime in many states and countries.
Ethical and legal issues in the case
One of the ethical issues in the case is the intention and the
motive of the film maker. According to the case, the
government officials said that Steele had lied about his
intentions when he was applying for a permit. He had indicated
that his intention was to cover how powerful the bridge was and
how it interacted with nature. He emailed the true intentions of
the documentary to the officials later (Wilkins et al., 2021).
This is an ethical issue because he was not honest and he did
this because he knew that if he had made his intentions clear
then probably the officials would not have permitted him to go
on with it.
Another issue in the case is whether the film makers had
the responsibility to save lives or not. Steele confessed that
during filming they did not interfere with the “jumpers.” This
means that even when the film makers knew that the intention
of the people was to kill themselves, they did absolutely nothing
to save their lives or stop them. New York times stated that the
documentary shows how being focused on the camera lens
7. resulted into the detachment of film makers with their
surroundings.
The real question is what was the intention of the
documentary and if the intention was to create awareness about
suicide then how better should have the documentary achieved
this. Looking at the positive side of the documentary is that it
talks about an important issue which most people including the
digital media do not talk about as much. However, there are
sufficient attempts to avert the issue by the film maker (Wilkins
et al., 2021). The film maker does not include the opinions and
views of professionals such as psychologists or mental illness
experts on the matter. This is because professionals can help
explain the causes of suicide and what triggers such events.
Suicide is a legal issue in the case; suicide involves the
action of an individual ending their own life. The film makers
in the case capture people during the act and the question is
whether by doing so they aid it in any way. Critics of the film
argued that the film makers encouraged suicide through the
documentary and this is because it might seem as if the
documentary gives the people ideas on how to kill themselves.
After the film, building a pedestrian suicide barrier was
considered and this is a positive outcome from the documentary.
Justification of the topic
The topic in the case is the social responsibility of film makers
and this is an important topic of study since most of the film
makers do not have a clear understanding of what is expected of
them. Looking at the topic will help clearly address what the
film makers owe to the society and the community in which
they are filming. Just like all other professionals, film makers
have a range of responsibilities towards the society.
Film makers should not forget their duty towards their
society in the craze of making money or becoming popular
through the society. This is an important topic that is worth
studying since the points and conclusions drawn from the study
8. will be helpful not only for the film makers but also for
advocates and legislators in this area. Film makers of
documentaries have the responsibility of making sure that they
have positive influence on the public and ensure that they
represent reality.

final project which is due in Week 9.

The article will be important to the final project, and this is
because it addresses various ethical responsibilities of film
makers. The article touches on how the film makers as public
servants have a responsibility towards the people to make sure
that they protect their wellbeing. Some of the issues addressed
in the article include privacy issues where the film makers are
required to protect the identity of people that do not want their
identity disclosed who are part of their documentaries.

10. Code of Ethics
Shawnette Howard
SHNU
1/16/2022
A Code of ethics is a set of moral guiding principles that
generally dictate how different situations should be handled
within an organization, assuming people will have to play
different roles and the said roles will involve the interaction
with different people. Therefore, these guiding principles are
put in place to ensure the utmost high recognition of
professionalism within the working environment. It is agreeable
that such principles are primarily put in place to act as a watch
regarding ethics and morality regarding what is right to what is
wrong. Therefore, this implies a minimum expectation of the
kind of conduct expected in the workplace, and this code
constitutes ethical standards.
American Medica Association (AMA) is one of the biggest and
most established organizations in the United States of America.
This implies that there is a need to establish a set of rules and
expectations to be followed by the different medical
practitioners when it comes to handling sensitive information,
especially that information that is relevant to the treatment of a
patient. This need has created the room to adopt a code of
conduct that recognizes that communication must be done in an
ethical manner that recognizes both the patient and the medical
11. practitioner's role in the exchange, that is, treatment of the
patient by the medical practitioner this codes are under Chapter
2: Ethics of Consent, Communication & Decision Making (
AMA, 2022). The code describes that information should be
shared to ensure professionalism. It further recognizes that there
should be a logical way of communicating information
regardless of the patient and why they have sought out medical
help.
The idea is to ensure that the patient feels safe enough to
confide in their doctors in whatever capacity is needed
depending on what information is required. For this reason,
despite the means of communication, for example, through
electronic means such as over a phone call, information should
only be relayed to the legally recognized individual, in most
cases the patient, next of kin, or parents and guardians. The
code recognizes that information can be shared for many
reasons, including announcing a patient's release or even death.
Communication, in this case, is left to those who are in a legal
capacity and professionally to be able to convey such a message
in a clear and comforting as is required in this field.
United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is a
humanitarian organization mandated by the United Nations
(UN) to take care of refugees and those displaced from their
homes in a manner that destabilizes their ability to take care of
themselves and their families. In most cases, such individuals
may be escaping war or floods and famine, thereby seeking help
from the organization. Like AMA, UNHCR recognizes the
importance of communication, especially because the
information is critical in the idea that funds used are from
donors who would want to know how their money is being used.
Therefore, the organization's code of ethics requires its
employees to avoid sharing information about any of those
refugees seeking help and those volunteers who are part of the
organization out of their own accord. In this case,
communication about any individuals is limited by the code of
ethics to those legally allowed to.
12. However, the two organizations contrast in their code in the
sense of need. The American Medical Association applies the
code of ethics to ensure that confidentiality is maintained,
thereby building trust between the Doctors and their patients. In
contrast, the UNHCR uses the codes to develop a way of
protecting those seeking help for reasons that may endanger
their lives, such as those who are running away for political
reasons. In the latter, communication is limited to ensure that
such individuals' identity remains hidden, creating security for
them.
Professional codes in ethical digital and mediated
communication ensure that online communications are carried
out in a sensible way that keeps the idea for respect of every
individual at both ends of the communication medium. The code
of honesty is an important ethical code in digital and mediated
communication because it recognizes that digital
communication is only efficient in cases where there is an
actual representation of everyone's true identity. In such a case,
identity must be honestly presented to avoid situations of
misrepresentation, which may lead to unlawful and unwarranted
decision-making out of the communication being made (Ethics,
2022). Secondly is the code of confidentiality; this ethical code
is important in the sense of the sensitivity of the information
being communicated by one individual to another. In such a
case, information being communicated may at times bear vital
data such as individuals' bank information or information that
bears life or death consequences, as is often the case when it
comes to information pertaining to the dispatching of military
personnel and etcetera(Ethics, 2022). Therefore, this code is
important since it ensures that aspects of identity are protected
when communication is done over such mediums.
Based on my reading, I believe that their ethical guidelines
would benefit any given organization. The first code in such a
case is the practice of obeying any law or public policy; this is
important because it gives everyone the mandate to work within
the bracket prescribed by the law. A good example would be
13. that such a code will deter individuals working in a bar from
selling liquor to underage people since it is against the law
(Ethics, 2022). Secondly, I believe that as a code of ethics, it
should be expected that individuals in a workstation should give
credit to those who are deserving. This is especially important
when it comes to tasks involving superiors and those
subordinate to them; in such situations, such a code would
require that the superior staff recognize the role played by those
under them. This is important because it provides everyone in a
given workplace with a healthy environment to work in, in the
sense that they can get the right reward for growth, for example,
in the form of a raise and promotion.
An example of why such code would benefit a company is
displayed in a situation where interns work hard to be
recognized by their superiors and find solid ground in terms of
employment in the organizations in which they are interning.
Such a code in the said organization would allow the intern to
feel comfortable, which inclines them to put in more effort,
which reaps mutual benefit to the company and them as they are
recognized for the good, they have brought into the company
(Ethics, 2022). Lastly, I believe the code not guaranteeing
results should be generally used (Ethics, 2022). The code is
often misinterpreted to mean the lack of certainty; this is quite
unfortunate since the code can generally mean that services
rendered are to be offered within the scope of possibility. A
good example of such a case would be when a doctor says that
they will do everything humanly possible to save a patient.
Overall, having a code of ethics compares to having a guiding
path that upholds professionalism in the work environment.
Various organizations have their code of ethics that guide how
things are done and ensure seamless operations. Wile their code
of ethics, such as those of AMA and UNHCR might contrast,
they are meant to serve the same purpose. Therefore thy should
be upheld at all levels of the organization.

15. COM 530 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
As a communications professional in the 21st century, it is
critically important to understand the laws and ethics that guide
how we communicate in digital and
mediated settings. Using the information learned in this class,
you will create a handbook for digital communication for the
company you work for or a company
you wish to work for. The handbook will be designed to guide
employees on how to communicate ethically and legally in a
digital world. It will also include a case
study of an existing digital communication case, issue, or
dilemma as an example of how to apply the ethical guidelines
and laws outlined in your handbook.
This project is a realistic assignment a communication
professional might receive and also shows how the concepts
learned in this course are applicable to the
real world. Your handbook should be realistic, but can take
many forms. For example, it can be created in a word document
like a standard handbook. Or, it could
be created as a website, blog, or presentation. You decide the
best way to convey the information in an interesting and clear
way including examples, photos, or
graphics as you see fit.

something that can easily be referred to by employees in your
company as they go about their work
creating messages and content for digital delivery.
Specifically the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Introduction: Compose front matter (i.e., preface, overview,
table of contents) that concisely informs the reader about the
purpose and contents of the
handbook.
II. Laws and Regulations: This section will discuss the laws
and regulations associated with digital communication. Utilize
specific examples to illustrate
how these laws apply to digital communication decisions.
a) Select, and briefly describe, well-known situations that show
18. how the First Amendment has been applied to digital and
mediated
communication.
b) Select landmark court cases in digital communication and
explain what changes were made in communication law because
of them.
c) Determine content and messaging changes made by
companies as a result of the changes in communication law
brought on by landmark court
cases.
d) Based on the above determination, compile a list of “best
legal practices” that company employees should follow when
creating digital
messages and other content for the company.
III. Ethical Guidelines: In this section, you will write your own
code of ethics for your company employees that will guide their
communication and message
creation in the digital world. These guidelines should be your
own and not copied from another source. However, your
guidelines should be based on
research and the ethical ideas and principles discussed in class.
a) Analyze existing professional codes of ethics for common
themes that apply to digital and mediated communication.
b) Based on these common themes, develop your own list of
ethical guidelines with references to where you have obtained
this information.
c) Justify the inclusion of each ethical guideline and provide
appropriate examples to support your rationale.
d) Based on the code of ethics you have created and existing
ethical frameworks, compile a list of “best ethical practices”
that company employees
19. should follow when creating digital messages and other content
for the company.
IV. Case Study: In this section, you will show how the legal
concepts and your ethical guidelines can be applied to a real-
life situation. This should serve as
an example to employees of how to apply the information in the
handbook.
a) Overview an existing, controversial dilemma in digital
communication and explain the legal and ethical implications.
This can be a specific
incident or a general issue that pervades digital communication.
The topic you choose should have both legal and ethical
implications.
b) Apply the First Amendment to this situation and support your
application with examples.
c) Illustrate how existing communication laws and regulations
apply in this situation.
d) Based on the precedents set in the previously selected
landmark legal cases, explain how this situation is impacted by
them.
e) Apply your list of “best legal practices” to assess the legal
actions of the parties involved in this dilemma.
f) Determine existing ethical codes from the media professions
involved in the dilemma.
g) Apply your list of “best ethical practices” to assess whether
or not ethics were taken into consideration by the parties
involved in the dilemma.
h) Determine how the results of your analysis can be applied to
future digital communication situations. Milestones
20. Milestone One: Analyzing Professional Codes of Ethics
In Module Two, you will write a 4–6-page paper analyzing two
professional codes of ethics and how they apply to digital
communication. Choose two ethics
codes from two different professional organizations, for
example, journalism and public relations. You can also use the
code of ethics from the organization your
work for, if one exists. You will then analyze these codes for
common themes that could be applied to digital and mediated
communication messages. Describe
how these codes can help guide ethical creation of messages to
the public and then suggest three to five “best practices” or
“practical guidelines” for how people
should communicate ethically in these fields. Justify why you
think each of your best practice suggestions are important. This
assignment supports your
successful completion of section III above. This milestone will
be graded using the Milestone One Rubric.
Milestone Two: Case Study Topic Selection and Explanation
In Module Four, you will submit the topic for the case study
21. that will be included in your final project. The purpose of the
case study is to show how the legal
concepts you discuss and the ethical guidelines you create can
be applied to a real-life situation. The topic for your case study
should be a real, controversial
dilemma in digital communication. It can be a specific incident
or a general issue that pervades digital communication and
should illustrate the importance of at
least one of the “best practices” or “practical guidelines” for
ethical and legal communication in the field. Summarize your
topic and briefly describe the legal and
ethical aspects you believe are present. Make sure to justify
why this topic is important and worth studying in order to
become better communicators. Include a
list of at least three potential sources you plan to use. This
paper should be 2–4 pages long. This assignment supports your
successful completion of section IV
above. This milestone will be graded using the Milestone Two
Rubric.
Milestone Three: Landmark Court Cases
In Module Six, you will analyze landmark court cases for how
they have impacted digital communication. Pick three to five
landmark court decisions that
changed digital communication. For each case, give an overview
of the case, then describe how the case impacted or changed
digital and electronic
communication. Make sure to discuss any changes that had to be
made in communication industries as a result of each case
and/or any immediate effects as a
result of each court decision. Evaluate the impact each case will
have on the future of digital and mediated communication. This
paper should be 4–6 pages long.
This assignment supports your successful completion of section
II above. This milestone will be graded using the Milestone
Three Rubric.
22. Final Project Submission: Final Submission
In Module Nine, you will submit your legal and ethical
handbook. This handbook will include ethical and legal
guidelines and practices along with a case study.
The handbook should follow the final project prompt and
include all the critical elements. It should be polished and free
of errors and reflect the incorporation of
feedback gained throughout the course. The final project will be
graded using the Final Project Rubric (below).
