This essay talked about how the media in interviews asks very biased questions. They say that they are more interested in getting the person interviewed mad and heated then worrying about the actual answers to the question. Talk show host also have the power to ask questions that they want to get a certain answer for. They have the ability to sway the interview the way that they want. The media also can only share what they want, they can just take segments of things to make it look bad or good.
Reaction:
I think that this is very true. The media can take an interview of politician and cut and piece together just what they want. There questions that they ask always have a person to either make them look good or bad. I think that its stupid that we have different TV stations for different political views. An example is Fox and CNN, Fox is very conservative while on the other hand CNN is very liberal in what they show. When I read this I thought about the movie "Mickey Mouse Monopoly" it is the same concept after a while maybe just one television station will control all the media. When that happens they will have control over the people of the world. Without two sides of a story we would never be able to compare and contrast them.
