The power of advertising ...
A new posting on The Postulate is worth a visit and your consideration. It asks an important question for us all - is the media too powerful.
Read her post and decide for yourself.
For my money I have long believed that the media are completely out of control. Opinions expressed are ofetn not the view of the people they purport to represent, facts are often wrong and scaremongering is the tactic which sells news. When you throw in advertsiing you have a recipe for a slew of misinformation like a runaway train.
Let's hope someone somewhere, knows where the brakes are and can introduce responsibility to the otherwise irresponsible media that we have all come to be influenced by.
