Frozen or Hot News: Debate Over the Online News Act
Google is so widespread that it is used as a common verb. When it’s clear people lack knowledge on a topic they are often told to “Google it”. On Feb. 22, 2023, Google announced it would be blocking or restricting some Canadian News content as a result of a dispute over Bill C-18 known as the Online News Act.

Facilitating Truth in Media: An Inspired Review of Meghan Markle’s Archetypes
Over last past Summer and Fall, I discovered Meghan Markle’s podcast, Archetypes, and have been enjoying it thoroughly. Listening to the discussions about negative social stereotypes that are often applied to women has allowed me to learn a lot from Markle and her often famous and controversial guests.

Why Today's Music Sucks: The Decline of Good Music
Today's music is created with the intent to sell, not influence. The songs today’s music industry classifies as latest hits are songs that lack quality, density, and abandon what it means to produce authentic and genuine music. Due to the unlimited access we now have to music as well as production through media, releasing music today requires a significantly lower degree of talent than ever before. This has a drastic effect on the music industry and what is considered popular today, and significantly influences how artists now approach releasing new music.
