1 answer:

8 0

<span>As the industrial revolution developed, so did the iron industry. A set of innovations, from different materials to new techniques, allowed iron production to expand greatly. In 1709 Darby became the first man to smelt iron with coke (more on the coal industry). Although this was a key date, the impact was limited as the iron was still brittle. Around 1750 a steam engine was first used to pump water back up to power a water wheel. This process only lasted a small time as industry became better able to move around as coal took over. In 1767 Richard Reynolds helped costs fall and raw material travel further by developing the first iron rails although this was superseded by canals.

how the media covers different event and occurrences, spaces allocated for advertisements and why certain topics are given promi

anastassius [24]

<span>The media does selection processes of what event to cover, what advertisements that should be given priority and be shown to the public, and what news topics are to be given utmost importance. These are all undergone during gate keeping. This controls over the selection of content that should be discussed in media whether it is of newsworthiness or not. Aside from gate keeping, priming is also done. It is the technique wherein a certain news, event, or occurrence is given utmost importance so that people would eventually think that it is really important. More importance given to a news, more importance attributed by the audience.</span>
