CNN contributor and writer Jeff Yang helps us perceive media with cautious consideration. He analyzed an interesting, yet grotesque, case of a young man's hostility by reviewing the person's manifesto and uniquely challenging the media's assessment. “But after seeing him consistently described as fitting the 'typical profile of a mass shooter'… A little research revealed what should be obvious. Rodger is biracial…” According to his article, Yang used his internal findings to confirm that Mr. Elliot Rodger has acquired an intense amount of hatred and anger toward other people. “I really didn't want to read Elliot Rodger's 'manifesto'...he found himself staring at it with ever-increasing resentment...” Using critical media literacy, which he evidently relied on, he found that an accumulation of racial identity, insecurity and simply racism played a dangerously negative role. It is important to have a safe media and personal environment. Clearly, Yang demonstrates that critical media literacy should remain a positive and peaceful “assistant.”
