If you come up with a different understanding from the mainstream it will take an hour of your time to explain it to the average person, if and only if they are extremely open minded, and then they will forget it.
The mainstream media gets to talk to hundreds of millions for a couple of hours every week. At least it's a bit better now that there's the internet.
- VLM 12y ago"The mainstream media gets to talk to hundreds of millions for a couple of hours every week." Its known that the numbers are single digit millions, for individual shows. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/category/ratings/top-news/evening-news/ http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/category/ratings/top-news/e... Probably double digit millions if you add it all together. There is likely a lot of overlap. "News junkies" watching ten newscasts equals ten views, but doesn't equal ten different viewers. Maybe triple digits if you add the entire world together across all languages and cultures. But that might be pushing it. The primary use of the news is signalling positions to the other side. Nobody is supposed to learn anything from it, just signal to other groups.
