3... 2... 1... Inflation!

Heyheybye discovers why prices are sky high.

No, I don't mean inflation like a balloon. I'm talking about the inflation of prices!

Hello, I'm heyheybye, and after many, many months of reading the Times, I've decided to follow in my little sister's footsteps (kirbie393) and write an article.

Don't know what inflation is? Well, here's the fancy, dictionary definition for it:

in-fla-tion -
n.

  1. The act of inflating or the state of being inflated.
  2. A persistent increase in the level of consumer prices or a persistent decline in the purchasing power of money, caused by an increase in available currency and credit beyond the proportion of available goods and services.

In this case, we're going to be using the second definition. If you don't know what that means exactly, because the definition is really using some fancy language, here you go:

What Are YOU Watching?

Armada wonders why no one watches MediaWiz's shows.

The average American teenager watches 3-5 hours of television per day. That's more than the time they spend learning in school.

So why in the world aren't ya'll watching the Media Hour shows?

On December 4, NO ONE at Media Hour could honestly say they watched a single show from the Wiz's column. Barely anyone (me and a few other girls) had watched anything even remotely similar to the topic. We had rented "Supersize Me!", a documentary about what fast food can do to your body, and the Media Hour's topic was "healthy eating".

So how come if you watch a few hours of TV a day, and MediaWiz is kind enough to pick out nine or more QUITE different genres of shows, why don't you don't watch the shows of the week?
