Media is a means of communication, as radio and television, newspapers, and magazines, that reach or influence people widely.
The morals propagated by leaders, preachers, and authority do not reflect those of advertising and often their actions.
You are granted free will to walk down the street though the street is riddled with billboards for alcohol and tobacco products.
The majority of the people can disagree with a war, but if the new corporate founder of credibility i.e. media does not report it. It either does not exist or it is closer to lunacy.
(If a tree falls in the woods and there is no media to report it. Did it exist at all?)
There is no question for me. Weather the media affects people or not. It does. And advertisers know this, and use this tool to gain favor of the population at an EARLY age. It is baffling that the strong tool of media is NOT geared MORE towards education.
There are some very sick and powerful families out there that grant inheritances of madness and megalomania.

I often have drawn the comparison to advertisers when making this point also..
Politicians often talk about how people are free to make choices
With no mention stuff like advertising or Media influence when it suits them.. Some even go so far to claim people make their own choices without influence!!!
Yet they take advantage of this and spend millions on media advertising to influence peoples choices. When it suits them better..
Therefore those times when they claim that "people make their own choices without influence" are nothing short of Unfair deception of the public.
