May 13 reading

This week was more of a resting week. The reading was some what simple.

This week reading disscussed all the player in public invovle ment in science/ it also was a group piece meaning that it was written by several authors which kinda through me for a loop.

When your making the public intreseted in science as marres said last week we should focus on the frames that actor use to moblize their concern and issues and thier attachment to things. This 5 paged piece was a refernece to marres initialling that THere are several public representation for things in science. but what we fail to do is look at the status of that representaion. and the involved possibilty and professibly. The peice went on with some concern about public trust in science. When dealing with a controversey the circlating reference deals with web which makes that become th primary vehical to all access in science. for instance most people pay attention to what is said in Journals (sciencetific Journals). When it comes to decision making with the public intrest we have to build trust rather than framing or persuade. In order for science to communicate well with the public science instutions should be taught about social and political apsects of the media. as well as relationship buliding with Journalist and editiors. (p.516) Some of the media responibilties for science would be to weave out the mainstream infromation of science. Meaning the corporations, and the ad's that tend to sell scince and the will need to be tradional with science giving the avialiable information from credible sources.
