Are you aware that the media is controlling you? - asjksdhkjwewaasd - 11-15-2012 08:49 AM
Controlling your views on what's attractive and what's not, what to buy, the way you think, what's good and what's bad... etc
Oddly, some people aren't aware of it. They think that their views and beliefs are derived by themselves and not formed because of the media.

To some degree.. you really have to be discriminatory when you watch the news or get sucked in. White media truly has a white spin on things that's for sure. Just look at this story.

They won't mention how Black people were injusticed and menaced because of what that beatch did but they keep concentrating on just the theft portion of it. Sick world; sick media.

NO, THE MEDIA HAS NO CONTROL OVER ME. I AM IMPERVIOUS TO MEDIA CONTROL. I WEAR A HEADBAND BECAUSE MY TASTES AND OPINIONS DERIVE FROM THE UNIVERSE, NOT FROM THE MEDIA.

I do not think media or anyone controls our views. In some instances actions are controlled by hysteria and demagogues. Perhaps media, books, people and religion "influence" views of the masses. However, it is up to any one to control that which they choose to believe, not believe or act upon. I know what you mean though. Some of us do not think for ourselves and accept media as the spoken word on all subjects.
