smb44It is really interesting that the article says that they think that the general public or average Americans are able to identify the different types of bias. However in the book chapter they clearly say that it may not be that simple as they lay out definitions of words that are commonly thrown around in media. The German population was not able to see past the propaganda given to them. Who's to say that the “average American” can? #so315
rmd1228@smb44 I agree that this was definitely an interesting and thought-provoking point. I feel many Americans have somewhat lost what propaganda is/means, and anything they see or read that doesn't align with their beliefs and thoughts, they deem it to be propaganda or too biased more often than not. It's just really objective nowadays on what certain citizens think of and define as bias and propaganda within the news/journalism field. #so315
