1.

WWW: there's the basis for a really good essay here with generally clear focus on he question and some appropriate examples and theories

EBI: you lose it towards the end. Marxism is a real weakness and without it you don't consider the other side of the argument - that the internet is still dominant by the main institutions.
Lots missing too: news values, hegemony, more theory and examples etc.

2.

I believe for the first statement I am at a level 2 because there was some critical autonomy being shown but it isn't really thorough enough to push for the higher levels.

There is also some reference to new and digital media showing a clear understanding how it has effected audiences. Not enough examples being used as evidence to further develop points and show wider knowledge. So possibly low end level 3.

Towards the end, I would lose focus of the question and forget to refer back to the key terms from the question. This meant that the essay seemed as if it were too general so I wasn't really linking it fully back to the question. Level 2 for this statement.

Level 2 for the example, theories and wider context as there wasn't enough used to show evidence of the points I was making. I should have used these examples to show a link between my opinions and it would have shown critical autonomy in the essay pushing this up to a level 3 at least.

Level 2 for the case study as again there was some reference of examples alongside the case study. Needed more of this to make the essay flow and show I understand the points I put forward.

The structure of the essay was level 3 because it did follow an order of fighting for pluralism but it didn't fight for Marxism which was missing which is why the level 3 wouldn't be solid. It needed more balance as a whole to further the marks in the statement.

3.

Discussing the impact on new and digital media on allowing audiences to participate alongside example to prove this. The essay should have included a lot more examples to improve the quality of my writing. It would have helped it flow better making it seem like a level 3 or 4.

Wider context was used to an extent but not enough.
