Media Media Media!

I am writing my research paper on how alcohol is portrayed in the media and how that in turn affects how our youth today perceive it. This makes it easy to interview people because almost everyone is affected by thing. The funny thing is that I just read this blog post topic and I realized that I have already interviewed someone for my paper. I interviewed my cousin who grew up and actually was really affected by alcohol. He had to drop out of high school and he got two DUI’s. Some of the things that I asked him were:
1. How did you start drinking?
2. What were some of your major influences?
3. If you could go back what would you change?
4. What are you up to now?
5. How did the media play a part of you drinking?
6. Did the media make it cool?
7. How old were you when you started?
8. What shows did you watch?
9. What movies did you watch?
10. What would you say to other kids now?
So these questions lead to a good conversation. If I could I would also interview a police officer and some sort of director.
