Propaganda Spread Through The Internet

...

Hello to everyone. Its been a while since I've made an entry. I'm very sorry for the inconvenience.In this entry I'm going to discuss about the power to spread news, lies, information and facts through the internet specifically social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. As we can see, a lot of things has been passed and shared around on Facebook and Twitter and this is very useful to use. These social networks also acts as a medium to share news. The power of spreading and influencing is very high.

The latest and biggest 'thing' on almost every social networking sites is about the KONY 2012. If there's someone that doesn't know about the KONY 2012 thing, man you must be from outer space! LOL. Nevermind, here's a video of the KONY 2012 program in case you haven't watched it.

Now after seeing the video that I've attached, what are your reactions? sad, pity, and the urge to help those kids? Yes, I felt the same way because this video plays with your emotion. It has very high emotional values. I mean, Who would not be sad seeing kids being tortured ? Now imagine if you share this video to your friends. As we know how this video affects our emotions, they too will share the video. There is 700 million people on facebook. Thats 700 million people talking about the issue. NOT knowing whether its true or not.

When you first saw the video, you didnt even asked yourself whether its true or not. You just believed everything you see. Now this is the power that the Internet holds. Spread things without people questioning it. Now set your mind clear, and watch these video. Then try to digest everything you've watched from this entry before coming with a conclusion.
