Journal 48: Your Opposition

First of all, the topic of my persuasive essay is media violence has a negative effect on the public. In addition, this is not an issue that recently comes up. Therefore, there must be some solutions or adjustments for this problem. So, how can I anticipate how someone might try to counter what I say? I believe that some audience might reject me because there are some ways to avoid media violence. For instance, parents can set passwords for some R rated channel. Then, children would not be able to watch this channel. This is one way that my audiences might question me about. Also, audiences might ask, “what if some people do not have computer or television at home?” Then, how can media violence create negative effect on them? In this situation, I might raise my supporting details that we are live in 21^st century right now. This means we are surrounded by technology, most of the people are highly possible to be in touch with technology in modern days. So, as you can see, there are several flaws in my arguments. I need to be able to identify them and try to provide more detailed examples to persuade my audiences.
