LO2: Social Media Globalisation and Moral Panics

Moral Panic- When the mass media stir something up on something that may have a negative impact on society e.g. saying something is bad for society. Stanley Cohen (1972)

Cyber-bullying - Bullying behind screens. Trollying online - constant bullying.

• This article is present the impact that moral panic is having

'A moral panic occurs, he said, when ‘a condition, episode, person or group of persons become defined as a threat to societal values and interests’. A moral crusade, fuelled by ‘media sensationalism’, is then launched against these allegedly threatening ‘deviants’, he said, until they loom large in the public mind as ‘folk devils’ whose behaviour poses a threat to public safety or moral norms.'

I agree with moral panic through ways in which social media can be negative for you rather than positive.Cyber-bullying /Trolling.
