Introduction

The effects of Mass Media to men


-Today's generation is dependent on almost all forms of mass media.
We receive fabricated information and what we have to do is to just
digest it. This kills the capacity of man to interpret and understand.
This faculty of man, which gave him the advantage of being the
highest among all animals, is no longer as useful to men of today than
to those of the past.
Body
Jacques Derrida abd his Philosophy
-Derrida believed that language is infinite and is therefore open to lots
of possible understanding. He said that man should focus on incriptions
rather than the immediate writings that he sees for it defeats the
purpose of the infiniteness of language.
Structural Phenomenon
"Kayo ang Boss ko"
-it is in this famous line that I shall try to apply Derrida's
philosophy of deconstruction. What are the possible
interpretations that may arise if this line of PNOY is to be
deconstructed?
Boss as the individual to whom one is subordinated.
"Boss tapos na ho ang trabaho ko" we refer to the
individual who ranks higher than us as boss.
Boss as the individual that one needs in order to make a
goal possible.
"Boss, bayad ho" we refer to jeepney drivers as
boss.
Conclusion
It seems that the second interpretation is what was meant by BS
Aquino whenever he addresses the Filipino people as his boss.
