This week felt a lot like I was doing my Communication Law class homework. We have learned a lot about publication and libel and the rules to follow in those areas. I enjoyed being familiar with the material but still learned some new things. I also enjoyed correcting statements that could be taken defamatory and changing them around a bit. I have never paid attention to newspaper articles as much as I do now when it comes to material that could be libel. I feel like now if I read anything I love paying attention to the small things reporters and writers do to make sure they are safe from libel. Even on T.V. news reporters have to make sure they say the right things in order to be safe from slander. I never had noticed this before. I have always been curious about how to use the his or her type of statements when it comes to sexism. In my religion I have always thought it was funny that it always is "him" and never her or she in the old books. It doesn't offend me, but I still find it cool that they are trying to make it more of an equal thing in writing.

This week I noticed that in my family calendar my aunt makes every year, she wrote that it was my cousins 12fth birthday. I thought that was kind of funny because it is spelt twelfth but it is abbreviated at 12th which confuses some people.
