         Mormonism is the predominant religious tradition of the Latter Day Saint Movement.  It was founded by Joseph Smith in Western new York in the 1820s. It distinguished itself from traditional Protestantism. A prophet leader Joseph Smith was killed in 1844. After that most Mormons followed Brigham Young on his westward journey to the Utah Territory. 
         Mormon fundamentalism maintained practices and doctrines such as poligamy ( plural marriage ), or the United Order, form of egalitarian communalism.  In the 1890 Manifesto the president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints announced the official end of plural marriage. This was the reason why several groups of Mormons broke with this church forming several denominations of Mormon fundamentalism.
      Some sources have claimed that there are about 6.5 million Mormons in the United States today.

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>
