This piece was more narrow than I expected which was actually intriguing. Nikki Miller chose to zoom in on one person in particular as the main example who happens to be a very interesting person in my opinion. Miller argued that Marilyn Manson's image encouraged negativity but he was much more than how he looked. Some of the things said were pretty interesting such as how his name came about. One thing that weakened this piece was the fact that the speaker did not speak very clearly and words seemed to run into each other at times making it difficult to understand what was being said. Miller gave some background information in efforts to support her argument. I felt that perhaps there could have been more support as to how Manson is not all of the negative things people lable him instead of sharing loose details about him. It didn't make me feel as if he was really being defended or explained which made the piece feel a little too opinionated without any solid facts to back it up. The music at the end was great but had awkward timing. Overall this piece was interesting enough and was a decent attempt at being an eye opener. I have to give Miller some credit for being a good and supportive fan and producing her own piece on Marilyn Manson.
