[beep]


The electric blue tape sharply contrasts with the pale, ashen skin of the man's face. It draws the attention straight to the tape over the mouth. This is key because my article has to do with word censorship on television. The "x" over his mouth is symbolic also. An "x" over eyes in cartoons means death so the "x" on his lips is like censorship killing his voice or freedom of speech.

Images are in many ways different compared to writing. The images can convey meanings and a visual that the reader might otherwise not think of. The bad thing about an image is that it only goes so far. A writing could keep going and going and have many different descriptions. Overall, I believe the writing is better because when you write you know exacty what you are saying and an image might not be able to capture all your ideas and thoughts on the subject at hand.
