28 percent of Americans admit to online 'trolling,' study finds
In a recent research study conducted by YouGov.com, over 28 percent of Americans admit to being intentionally mean toward someone they didn't know on the Internet, according to a survey of 1,125 adults.

Ten years ago if you were to ask someone what a troll was, the common response might be, "oh you mean the thing that lives under the bridge?" Today the term "trolling" is Internet terminology that is used to describe someone who is deliberately provoking or upsetting other users on the Internet by posting mean (degrading, racial, religious, etc.) comments or starting arguments, usually with random strangers, on online discussion boards.
According to the study, 23 percent of those who have ever posted content admit to having maliciously argued over an opinion with a stranger and 23 percent have maliciously argued over facts.
Trolling is often seen on sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Reddit and Yik Yak but are not limited to just
these sites. Trolling happens everywhere but according to the study, the main age group of trollers range from 18-34, with male users reporting higher rates of trolling than females.
Anonymous posting apps have become easy platforms for trolling because it allows users to stay anonymous and receive no reprimand for their actions. According to the study (by YouGov.com), 77 percent of the people surveyed would be more likely to engage in trolling activities if they were able to remain anonymous.
The question now arises
Taylor Crane, a sophomore from Overland Park, thinks it should be.
whether or not trolling should be considered cyber bullying.
"Trolling is something that happens all the time now," Crane said. "You can't look at any video on YouTube without seeing a negative comment about someone. Same with playing online games. Some people don't even know what trolling is but I consider it a form of bullying. Sometimes people take it way too far."

Museum unveils exhibit showing rich story of Jewish life in Poland
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WARSAW, Poland — In the two millennia between ancient Israel and its modern rebirth, Jews never enjoyed as much political autonomy as they did in Poland, a land that centuries later would become intrinsically linked to the Holocaust.
A worker looks at a display of photographs and texts from early 1900 at the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw, Poland.
The story of this great flourishing of political and cultural life is part of a 1,000-year history told in a visually striking new museum, the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, which opens its long-awaited core exhibition to the public Tuesday amid days of celebrations.
The Polish and Israeli presidents will attend, along with Polish Holocaust survivors who helped create this memorial to the lost world of their ancestors

Polin is Hebrew for Poland, and also means "rest here," a reference to a story Jews told themselves about their arrival in Poland in the Middle Ages: that they found favor from the rulers and were allowed to dwell there in tranquility. The result was centuries of a flourishing Yiddish-speaking civilization that made important contributions to Polish and world culture before being nearly wiped out by Nazi Germany.
"The Holocaust has cast a shadow onto this great civilization and the generations of Jews who lived in Eastern Europe before the Second World War, as if those centuries of life were little more than a preface to the Holocaust," Museum Director Dariusz Stola said. "But that is absurd. This museum stresses that 1,000
years of Jewish life are not less worthy of remembrance than the six years of the Holocaust."
Poland, in a union formed in the 16th century with Lithuania called the Commonwealth, became one of Europe's largest and most ethnically diverse territories.
Jews benefited from tolerance and a large degree of self-governance granted by the rulers, growing into the world's largest Jewish community. Today 9 million of the world's 14 million Jews can trace their ancestry to Poland.
"They're making really innovative, expansive work, which still expands many of the Hollywood traditions," Jamieson said.
FILM FROM PAGE 5
Although Vamos! hasn't been a tradition at Kansas, film festivals in general are routinely held by the Center for Global and International Studies.
"It's just really the multitude of groups and departments of people who want to be able to present these films and discuss them that allowed all of this to come together," Jamieson said.
The Films:
The Paints.
“Tambien la lluvia” (“Even the Rain”) was shown on Oct. 15 as the opening film of the festival.
Viewers were able to watch this film about exploration in South America while eating homemade tamales cooked by a local Mexican chef.
"La muerte de Pinochet"
("The Death of Pinochet")
explores Chilean history.
It was followed by a Q&A with the film's director, Ivan Osnovikoff. This documentary, screened Oct. 20, is a very challenging film, Jamieson said.
"It's a really interesting film but it does not hold your hand, if you don't know Chilean history, you don't know who Pinochet was, it doesn't really baby you along," jamieson said.
This film is based on a true story about the exploration of Brazil in 1943. A discussion with professor of Spanish and Portuguese, Luciano Tosta, will follow the film.
