What I'm amazed is how the news directs people's attention and forms agendas. From Covid, the Southern border migration, Police shootings, Venezuala, Syria etc they're all multi-year ongoing problems but suddenly reach crises then a few days later you never hear again. The Media has so much power to influence what people care about.
