In politics media is often used to control or change peoples thoughts. Even today. Just look at all the cheap shots Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have thrown at each other through the media.They were all attempts to get the viewer to question their innitial thoughts and then change them. Also,Obama's good looks on television seem to have gotten him more votes from the younger voters,or so it seems. Similiar to the John F. Kennedy campaign. Also, as I said in an earlier post, being an actor can help boost your popularity and give you more exposure in the media which helped Arnold Schwarzenegger become a governor.
