1. Does the image accurately represent the headline news?

Yes. The image shows traditional leaders, which aligns with the headline focused on a chieftaincy dispute.


2. What emotions does the image evoke?( Does it create urgency, sympathy or controversy)

The facial expressions are serious and composed, evoking formality and gravity—fitting for a legal/traditional conflict.


3.Is the image manipulated or biased?( Does it frame the story in a particular way)

Not obviously. The use of two different individuals visually balances the story. However, if one is the restrained party and the other is not, the side-by-side presentation could unintentionally suggest equivalency or rivalry.


4. How does the composition affect storytelling?( Consider framing, lighting and focus)

Strong composition. Both chiefs are centered, dressed regally, and well-lit. The clear backgrounds make the image easy to focus on and add cultural weight.


5.Does the image add depth to the story or simply reinforce the headline?

It adds depth. Seeing the chiefs humanizes the story and makes the headline feel more significant and connected to real people.


6.Would a different image change the reader's perception of the news?

Yes. An image of a courtroom or traditional council could shift focus from the individuals to the institutional decision-making.


7. How does the image compare to others covering the same story?

Compared to typical images of chiefs, this one is very formal and dignified, avoiding sensationalism.


8. Is the image culturally or politically significant?(Does it reflect societial biases)

Very much so. The image reflects Ghanaian traditional authority and the political weight such roles carry. It respects societal structures.

1.Yes. The image clearly depicts the aftermath of a collapsed building, which directly supports the headline.


2.Shock and concern. The damage looks severe, evoking sympathy for victims and concern about infrastructure safety.


3.No manipulation visible. The image seems to be a straightforward photo of the scene.


4.The framing shows the damage dramatically, capturing the chaos and destruction. Lighting and angles draw attention to the broken walls and scattered debris.


5.The image reinforces and adds urgency to the headline. Readers can immediately grasp the seriousness of the collapse.


6.Possibly. An image with emergency responders or mourning family could intensify the emotional response. Conversely, a distant image might dull the impact.


7.This is a typical choice for disaster reporting—raw, real, and close-up.


8.Yes. It subtly critiques infrastructure standards and building regulations in Ghana, especially since this is the second collapse in days.

GHANA'S COOPERATION WITH THE FBI: A WIN FOR INTERNATIONAL CRIME-FIGHTING By Cassandra Duku June 28, 2025   Story Source:Graphic online      Ghana’s recent cooperation with the FBI in extraditing individuals suspected of cyber-related fraud underscores the country’s growing role in combating transnational crime.

My New Media Class Experience – Week 3

 📘 My New Media Class Experience – Week 3 Week 3 of our New Media class was one of the most insightful sessions so far. Today, we moved beyond the basics and focused deeply on social media campaigns — what they are, why they matter, and how organisations use them to reach their goals. The class opened my eyes to how strategic and intentional digital communication has to be, especially in our highly competitive online environment. A campaign is not just posting content. It is an organised and active effort toward achieving a specific goal, such as creating awareness, promoting a product, encouraging public action, or building a community. Understanding this foundation helped me see why many brands succeed online while others struggle. 📍 Understanding What a Social Media Campaign Really Means Our lecturer explained that a social media campaign is a structured marketing effort that uses one or more social media platforms (like Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, etc.) to support a busin...

Today’s Little Victories as a Student

 🌞 Today’s Little Victories as a Student Today wasn’t perfect, but it came with a few small victories that made me smile — and honestly, that’s enough for me as a student. I arrived in class earlier than usual, which already felt like an achievement. I had time to sit, breathe, and mentally prepare before the lesson started. For once, I wasn’t rushing like a character in an action movie. That alone set a good tone for the day. When the lecture began, something surprising happened — I actually understood the topic. Not halfway. Not “I think I get it.” I understood it clearly. And that feeling gave me a boost of confidence I didn’t even know I needed. Break time was calm too. I spent a moment talking with classmates, laughing about school stress, and realizing that we’re all just trying our best. Sometimes, knowing you’re not alone in the chaos makes everything feel lighter. The rest of the day moved smoothly — no surprise quizzes, no group work drama, no unexpected deadlines. Just ...
