Week 10 - Politics



A video of how the internet has affected the 2008 election.

The internet has not only improved the medium of rallying for an election but also bring more people together in a faster and more effective way. But there's always ups and downs. Because, in the past, with newspapers and television, contents can be controlled and top information can be kept. However now with the internet, news and personal opinions (even extremest) can be heard and be shown to the world. So now days every political or famous people have to pay much more attention on their presentation, their speech, the body languages. Any jokes with hidden intention can be used against them and any classified information can be exposed on the internet.

So it's tough to be a politician now. Everyone is watching your every move...
