Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Courts are indirectly influenced by the media. The media influences and mitigates a disparity across the political orientation of districts. This is more or less aggravated by the media presence in a district, town, small city, etc, given that the coverage of cases that are in court can be made to influence a particular outcome by, for example, a newspaper coverage of the case. Many times, as the exercise briefly explains, a way to influence the court could be to present the judge or the court of law itself as soft, slow, "easy" on criminals, etc.

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Regular viewers of crime shows are more likely to fear crime. Although there are a few limitations with regard to the measures of media consumption. First, the type of crime show that the respondent is viewing is unknown. There are numerous types of crime shows that may focus on different aspects of the criminal justice system. For example, crime shows may focus on police, courts, private investigators, defense lawyers and sometimes even the criminals. In addition, some shows are more realistic, while others routinely portray violence, and consistently misinform viewers about the nature of the criminal justice system and criminality. It would be prudent to know which dramas the respondents are viewing. Second, employing television hours watched is problematic, since there is no way of determining what type of programs the respondent is viewing. There are a number of different programs that may or may not address criminal justice issues and address them in substantially different ways. Finally, examining newspapers as the primary source of crime news suggests that only newspapers influence respondents. It would be naive to suggest that respondents are not affected by a number of sources; for example, respondents who receive their primary crime news from newspapers may also be affected by presentations of crime from other sources such as films, television and/or personal experiences

Who are constituents and why are they important to members of Congress?
Nat2105 [25]

Parties, interest groups, and constituents all influence members of Congress in their vote choices, and members also compromise and negotiate with one another to reach agreements. A common practice is logrolling, in which members agree to vote for one another's bills. I hope this helps!

Domestication and pastoralism were key aspects in the development of the
Tatiana [17]

Answer: The school board wants you to answer C) Agricultural Revolution, but that is incorrect.

The correct answer would be during the Neolithic Era, so none of the choices would be the right answer.

Explanation: During the Paleolithic Era, which corresponds to the old stone age, people were hunter-gatherers.  This means that they obtained food by hunting animals and by gathering fruits, vegetables, and nuts from local plants.  So options A and B are pretty much the same thing and incorrect.

Domestication and pastoralism developed during the Neolithic or new stone age when people discovered that, if they took care of certain plants, they would grow again and give them more food.  Domestication is not the same thing as agriculture (even though the school system continues to teach it this way).

The Agricultural Revolution actually refers to a much later period in history, during the 18th century in Britain, when traditional agriculture went through a process of transformation.  This is way after domestication and pastoralism.  

Finally, option D is also incorrect because classical civilizations like Greece and Rome already had full-scale agriculture and had already gone through the process of domestication and pastoralism.
