Does the media play into our fears?

[[CAKE]anonymity]

Any like or dislike will show through to the work in one form or another. Since it is true that you can not will aways emotion you can control them, and how they control you. A situation where they will show emotion are usually during large tradgedies (9-11 they all were emotionally shocked). Instead of looking at the situation rationally most of them will try to point the finger at someone. It could be premature and totally the wrong person or end up being the correct person based on a guess or mere hunch. Osama was the main suspect that was fingered and luckily turned out to be the actual person. His name was the first I heard and the only one I heard to blame 9-11 on. I did hear this name a few hours after the attack.

Gboy brough up cause and affect in my video game violence thread and I think it is very applicable here. The media showed the attack over and over again and appointed blame the first second they got. They could have looked at the causes of the 9-11 and help prevent it. I dont mean by passing an act. The problem is foreign, so change the way you handle foreign politics. I have always been one to try and stop a problem at its route rather then putting a band aid over a broken leg. Media maybe one of those problems, so I want to dig deep, rather then saying what we can't do. I want to hear some stuff that we can. You've heard my suggestions, I want some of yours.

Edit: 9-11 was an example, lets try not to debate it too much :thumb:
