How is the freedom of press good for the common people?
Posted on January 31st, 2010 by admin
The common people are told a story that they can’t respond too. Most have no vision, so they see the story as fact. Is the press a tool used to keep the masses in alignment? The press is a brainwasher for the moronic. WOW, its so easy to control the common people! Comments?
Well, TV stations like Fox really do brainwash the common person because they don’t know better. they don’t have teachers in school to tell them that this is all wrong, that you can’t believe everything you are told. TV’s all controlled by politicians now, but we now have the internet that is equaliy popular to tell us the truth. Luckly, there are still people who don’t trust everything they hear, which is how there is still some freedom of expression.

Fox news is an example of bias in the media (though they have other programs that have very open program material like the Simpsons).
If that was all we had it would be total manipulation of our thinking so freedom of the press is good. You can’t make people think which, as I see it, is the thrust of your question. Only half the people are above average the other half is below so 1 out of 2 is less able to process info. and need it put in an easily digestable form. Control of the media is imperative to a dictatorship and paramount to repressive regimes.
