Assignment 1-6
Cognitive dissonance
 A person can internally witness a feeling of
  uncomfortable stress or tension which comes from
  holding two conflicting thoughts in their mind at the
  same time.
 Dissonance increases with: The importance of the
  subject to us, how strongly the dissonant thoughts
  conflict and our inability to rationalize and explain
  away the conflict. Dissonance is often strong when we
  believe something about ourselves and then do
  something against that belief.
Example:
 If I believe I am good but do something bad, then the
 discomfort I feel as a result is cognitive dissonance.
 Cognitive dissonance is a very powerful motivator
 which will often lead us to change one or other of the
 conflicting belief or action.
Agenda-Setting Theory
 The agenda-setting theory is a theory that the news
  media has large influence on audiences by their choice
  of what stories to consider newsworthy and how much
  prominence and space to give them.
 Through their day-by-day selection and display of the
  news, editors and news directors focus our attention
  and influence our perceptions of what are the most
  important issues of the day.
CRITIQUE:
 Some of the insights that I gained from the articles is a
  better perspective of what the two theories mean and
  what they represent. With the examples given, I can
  now elaborate on each theory and recognize which
  theory may be needed once I step into the business
  world.
COMPARE AND CONTRAST:
 Cognitive dissonance and the agenda setting theory
 have similarities in the sense, that they are both
 something that a person can mentally decide what
 direction to go with their thoughts.
How you see each of these theories as potentially
useful for current communication professionals. How
could they be applied to practice?

  Cognitive dissonance is something that could benefit a
  PR professional because when the person has feelings
  of guilt, it is our job to counteract that with a positive
  message that could possibly be a turning point in that
  person’s life and in the same breath could create
  goodwill in that person’s eyes towards the business you
  represent
How you see each of these theories as potentially
useful for current communication professionals. How
could they be applied to practice?
 Agenda setting theory can be beneficial in the sense
  that with the supposed control that the media has on
  the minds of the viewer, would make the PR
  professional more aware of the impact they may have
  on the message delivery and presentation they give to
  the listening audience.
