You may not have (at least that you're consciously willing to admit), but I can assure you that the vast majority of people have been and will continue to be. Why do you think a Government can blatantly lie to the public and get away with it? Have you ever heard of the concept of propoganda? The Soviet Union was based on it.m4dd0g said:Ive never changed my opinions through politics or media.
They've changed gradually through interaction with the people who surround me.
What the hell does that mean? Life is not a conspiracy. People choose to become Journalists & Politicians the same reason people choose other professions. Because it appeals to them and maybe in some naive way they think they can change the world. I don't think Little Johnny woke up one morning and said "You know what? I want more power than anyone else in this country! I'm going to become a politician and install draconian new policing law to infringe on everyone's rights and make sure we all live in misery for the rest of our lives! mwahaha".m4dd0g said:Polititians are motivated by the desire to capture the countries beliefs, they dont set them .. they are slaves more than we are.
Successful journalist are motivated by drama not content (cf. my rant yesterday).
