Miscommunication

In class today we planned out a skit that expressed the concept of miscommunication that can be involved in interpersonal and intrapersonal communication. Intrapersonal communication is usually where idea and thoughts begin. Most people don't start out speaking to large groups. In Intrapersonal communication you are speaking either with yourself or a very small group of about two or three. Next comes Interpersonal communication which takes the idea and conversations had within a small group, and spreads it throughout a much larger population.
The skit consisted of a few member of the class playing something similar to the childhood game "Telephone" which shows how ideas morph and change depending on who is presenting them. It demonstrated how sometimes in media we perceive things that are not actually true. Sometimes, through the use of music or other forms of "bedazzlement", we are purposely led astray by the media in an attempt at sensationalism. The media miscommunicates its information to us for a number of reasons. The main reason is money; The more viewers a station can get, the more money they produce in the end.
