Media and Politics

Weather: hot. Mood. so,so. The current political state of our country seems as if it's trouble. Many Americans seem to have an issue with the way things are one way or another. I myself have faith in our political system. I just feel that current people in power need to be replaced. I also see a problem with ALL the candidates that would like to replace Bush. I am not sure whether the media has convinced me that these candidates are that bad or they really do just stink. I do feel that many of the issues discussed on television usually give me a vibe on how to feel about a person. I don't know if this is me being a sucker to media propaganda or the opinions of critics on television. I do know that I most likely will not vote this election because I do not see any candidate fit for the job. Alright, tired of bloggin'. Over and out.

The Dark Knight


Weather: nice. Mood: sick.

Advertising is always around. Therefore, I feel it is impossible for a person to not be somewhat affected by it. I myself have been conned into buying something or at least been influenced by an ad almost everyday. For example, the other day I was watching television and happened to catch a movie preview of The Dark Knight. This is the
sequel to Batman Begins. It is also Heath Ledger's last movie before his passing. I have added a link of the preview because I found it was a very affective advertisement of the upcoming movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAkuWGMimQA&feature=related
Ads don't always work on the viewer. I see Ebay television ads all the time, and yet they have still not convinced me to use their site. I wish I could say the same for my mother. Here is an ad by Ebay. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAkuWGMimQA&feature=related
