School Project about religion in the media, help apreciated

[glorfon]

For my final project in my mass media class I'm suppose to do a project about media activism. I can handle the written part, but we're suppose to do some action regarding our topic. My topic is the rise of the conservative Christian media and their misportrayal of science, hence why I'm posting here. I don't know what to do for my action. If any one knows where I could download "Creation Adventure Team" I'd like to make a refutation to it. I've also considered doing something on conservapedia but I'm not sure what.


Any suggestions? I have six days.

I'd suggest debunking like this:

You can view the whole Jupiter chapter here:

Well, it's not really worth debunking that video unless I can get the whole thing. I found creation adventure team here but I don't know how to download it. Does any one know of a program that will work for downloading from that kind of player?

I know how to download them, but you'll need VLC media player to view them. (You should VLC player anyway, because it's a zillion times better than anything else, and it's free.)

I wrote a quick bookmarklet which will alert for you all .flv links on the page. Go to the page and copy and paste this code into your address bar:

javascript:for(i=0;i<document.links.length;i+=2){if(document.links[i].href.toLowerCase().indexOf(".flv")!=-1){alert(document.links[i].href.toLowerCase().substring(0,document.links[i].href.toLowerCase().indexOf('&')))}}

Every link that it pops up will be the link to download that movie file.

Have you tried that out yourself? Because, it isn't working for me. I even tried making an html file with those links and selecting save link as. It still just gets me the player. Could it be dependent on the browser? I'm using Firefox.

Hmm, it might not be working. I'm not going to bother goign through it, but I'll just explain hwo to get those files here:

1. Figure out which video you want to download.
2. Copy and paste the link to viewing that video into a text editor.
3. See in the middle of that link it says soemthign like "vidUrl=http://media.answersingenesis.org/video/kids/Six-Short-Days/chapter-5.flv"? Copy that link and paste it into your address bar. Make sure that you only have up to the .flv, and no further.
4. The download should begin automatically.
5. View in VLC player.

EDIT: You knwo what? Here are all of the links. You're welcome.

Thank you so much. I hope I can find a converter in so that I can edit it, but I think I can manage that on my own. When I'm done I'll try to distribute it but I'm not sure how yet. I'm not going to get my you tube channel shut down for this. Maybe torrenting?
