Do you think people are manipulated by the media?

Definitely, I think that people are manipulated by the media.

The first thing I have to mention is that the news which they
see on TV, in the newspaper can change their thinking. For
example, when a hot problem is raised for discussing, instead of
giving their opinion or thinking, they choose to follow the trend
on the internet. Many arguments are told in a particular way to
influence what and how you think. I also should say that some
information on the media can lead people to negative thinking
and action. Fraudulent appropriation of assets, prostitution
brokers, drug dealing have been existed on the Internet, which
is very dangerous and have significant impact on social life.
More seriously, there are many ideology that deviate from the
standards of society, which having been disseminated on the
media. it is not popular, but it is enough to cause political
reactionaries, or superstitious religious ideas, which is mainly
appearing in low-educated people. So, it’s time for people to
through back and stay away from trivial temptations on the
media, and use it for good purpose.
