Anti- War in the News

Anti War - 

    All you ever hear in the news now a days is war, but have you noticed that you never hear about countries not wanting to go to war? That is because it is a topic that is never brought up they somehow always mange to keep it out of the daily newspapers, news stations and other sources. Why do they do that? It has always been a question that crosses my mind because as I was growing up I have always heard that all everyone wants is peace in the world. But now that I pay more attention and try to learn more about the news, it makes more sense. 

    

    I have noticed that when I watch the News that they try to make things a lot more dramatic then it actually is whether they do that by using fake news, spiking the stats, or changing the wording of things. So when gullible people who look at their typical news sources see something about countries going to war and things like that, they don't even question it. They just assume that the only way to fix the problem is go to war, people don't take into consideration that there is a bigger population of people who are anti-war then there is. There are people that trust the news and the information they are posting so much they will believe anything and not even go to check the facts or the opinions of other people.  Only people that like to do research and make sure they are reliable sources will go and search deeper, to where they can find articles like the "American Conservative" and "Anti War". 

    
This is just another reason why people should be more aware of the information they are reading, because as I have learned a lot in both this class as well as english you can never be so sure that the info you are reading is true or not. There are so many who are closed minded and only believe what they see but really they should be going out and exploring new articles not just listening to one source. There is so much out there and especially with the war and anti war argument people just need to branch out and realize that.
