During WWII, there was a character named Axis Sally (Mildred Gillars for Nazi Germany and Rita Zucca for Fascist Italy) that spread propaganda to American forces in Europe with the goal of undermining America’s efforts to defeat Germany and Italy. The news Axis Sally delivered was negative, disheartening, and defeating to American soldiers and the hope was that it would lead to America's demise.
It’s not all that different from what the media is serving up to the public nowadays. 9.5% unemployment, fears of double-dip, etc. When you hear that kind of news, ask yourself: How is what I’m hearing serving me? In case you’re not sure, let me help you: IT’S NOT HELPING YOU AT ALL!
I’ve said before and I’ll say it again: You are just one person looking for just one job. Don’t let the media serve you failure for breakfast, because you deserve and are better than that.
To your success,
Rita
so does that suggest the media is lying or we need to ignore them? if we ignore them then are we burying our heads in the sand?
