Having lived in ex-part of USSR before moving to UK when I was 11 years old, well had to seeing as my parents did, who here actually believes that media is anything representitive of what Journalism is thought to be?
Defnition: The activity or profession of writing for newspapers or magazines or of broadcasting news on radio or television
Although it doesn't expressly state it, I would think that Journalism would mean representing both sides of the flip coin rather than just using as a median to brainwash the masses.
I've personally noticed a clear pattern whilst watching TV or reading the papers, so am just wondering who actually follows the events in the media and believes half the shit they spew whilst there is an availability of internet which albeit not the most trustworthy sources, but provide a far clearer picture of the current events?
P.S: I don't mean that only the West utilizies todays greatest weapon, but it seems like it is a much more integral part of peoples lifestyle than in the East. I would see people whom I would consider to be well educated from both parts of the world, and the ones from the East tend to dismiss the propaganda whereas the Western counterparts tend to be more accepting of the gospel that the media preach. After years of clear rather than subliminal information emission I guess they've probably developed some sort of immunity and skepticism to not be influenced anywhere as much as people in the West.
