Prompt - Control Room

Prompt : It is ok for the government to mislead in order to promote security. I do not necessarily agree with this statement, however, I do not disagree with it either. For the purpose of this task, I would agree to the statement in regard to the aftermath of watching the documentary : The Control Room. Firstly it is worth noting that this documentary is by Al Jazeera, a media outlet in that focuses and is based largely within the Arab/ Middle Eastern community. Although it is described as being objective, no amount of pure objectivity can be measured and thus subjectivity is present.

The statement just contradicts the position and role of the government. Although some may see it as ok to mislead to promote security , it falsifies claims of governments misleading in general. Furthermore, equating this, proves that not only would people be upset, but it would start to question the integrity of the government and position in general. In a Democratic system, one would elect a candidate based on policy,social agenda and attitudes. It isn't till however, action is put into place and real work is actually done. The way governments handle and manipulate within society such as media, is a prevalent factor in asking "Why did we even elect him/her if all they say is lies". This ties into international disputes as seen through propaganda/media manipulation in the Control Room and reaction to people/public to solidify false reasoning on entering the Iraqi War.

One perspective one can look at this is : It is illegal for Advertisers to mislead/change info of their product or what happens with the product in relation to consumers. Isn't Propaganda by the government just in fact, false advertising, yet somehow legal? How do we know that the product we consume(media, speeches, propaganda) is right from both internal and external sources?

'Don't be Afraid' - Trump (Parody Post)

YOU Aren't Safe - Trump states after Presidential Win in his luxurious palace in New York

"Of Course, if I tell them, everything will be alright I would be lying. Indeed I would. People in this country aren't safe and that's the truth. Us, we, real American people are in danger and I will take action" said Trump after an interview on CBS News. 
The interview took place in the Trump Tower Penthouse and marked Trump's first televised sit-down since his brilliant and no contest win over Hillary Clinton. Topics were talked about, but what caught many eyes, is President Trumps focus on social divisions and global independence for the United States. Social divisions were controlled by Trump and part of his thought out campaign promises in his steamroll at winning the White House. 
Trump admitted that despite his election day highs, he is focused on being our president and an amazing one at that. Trump also talked about policies such as a wall which would separate Mexico and USA and raised a question for our people: "Are you safe?" in which he backed up by saying that our country is filled with Mexican rapists and terrorists. Supporters from all over the east and west coast spoke about their joy and one was quoted saying 'Get them out of OUR country!'. 

It's excellent to see such patriotism from Donald and his loyal supporters and us Americans. This country is going places and needs Trump to stay afloat. The only problem we face is "Can anybody be better than Trump"? To which many Americans don't need to say a word.
