Media

The media may be weak, but the people are much weaker. Sure if the people stop letting the media have input into their lives, the media would cease to exist. Since its main objective would fail, which is to control the people and make them feel "safe" or make them feel fear, the people all around would be much better off. However, the people are 100% sure that this is not the case. they believe the media keeps them up-to-date on everything, warns them about dangers that they should hide from their children, lets them know about anything going on in the outside world, and so on. Sure some of this is "true" to some extent, but how far should the media of really gotten into our lives? When did the media cross the line when it came to everything that it stands for? I would say to you that the media should of never of been given such a fuel source that will never die, others would say the exact opposite. Infact, I believe if there was a nation wide pole on the subject, at least 90% of Americans would be FOR the media. I believe this is horrible, and is one of the few big matters in America that I believe have a chance of ruining the great country. If there was some way to scratch the media for good and bring some other idea to the table.. I'd be all for it, but who else would be in favor?
