Welcome to Year 13, class of 2010-11

The focus for the next few weeks is on theory as you need this to flesh out your deconstruction work this year. Feminism, Post-feminism, Marxism and Gramsci will be the areas of investigation.
There's lots of good media news around at the moment:

  • How much the BBC pays its top 'talent'. Should this be made public?
  • Look at the banned Diesel jean ad campaign.
  • 'Breastfeeding is creepy' comments from deputy editor of Mother & Baby magazine, Kathryn Blundell.
  • Times onLine starts its 'pay per read' policy. Readers pay to read full news articles. What do you think?
  • Price war between Sky, Virgin Media and BT vision.
