'Aliens Destroyed Life On Mars, Now Trump Poised To Do The Same On Earth', Says Journalist Peter Sheridan



More than a week ago, US President Donald Trump commemorated his first 100 days in office, and the reactions to his rough politics and controversial declarations are uncountable.

In a world influenced by mass media, what people receive through these media determines their behaviour and, in consequence, also determines their political participation.

For these reasons, on 29 April, Los Angeles-based journalist Peter Sheridan published an article on famous internet blog BoingBoing.com in which he discoursed (sometimes with a touch of sarcasm) about the news that have captured the world’s attention in the past seven days.

“It's good to see this week's tabloids getting back to the really important news”, Mr Sheridan wrote. “’Aliens Nuked All Life Off Of Mars!’ proclaims the 'National Examiner,' which also brings us the more earth-bound revelation that disgraced President Richard Nixon, while happy to meet with Elvis Presley, ‘ordered hits on Hendrix, Joplin and Morrison’”, he expressed.

In his opinion, the previously mentioned news “distracts us from the 'National Enquirer' cover this week, which with characteristic restraint screams: ‘World War 3 Is Coming!’ But fear not - the 'Enquirer' brings us a ‘step-by-step’ guide to ‘How Trump will crush our eight enemies!’”.

The journalist sarcastically said that “it's the sort of bombast we've come to expect from North Korea, but it's troubling to find such bellicosity (yet again) in the pages of a publication that boasts better connections to the White House than 'The New York Times’.”

“Our enemies? North Korea and ISIS, naturally. Syria will be nuked - that'll put Trump in the history books, if there are any that survive the ensuing global conflagration”, he sarcastically commented.

Mr Sheridan also severely criticised the media’s superficiality. “'People' magazine devotes its cover to TV's ever-popular 'Bachelorette' series, under the headline: ‘Life After Bachelorette’. But the headline seems to be missing the question mark I would have added at the end of that sentence. The feature story tells how six former Bachelorettes found love, and are raising new babies (no doubt because it's just no fun raising old babies)”, he wrote.    

With these statements, Mr Sheridan shows how the media are manipulating people’s mind by giving them frivolous information in order to keep them in a state of submission to elites. Will this trend continue?

Draw your own conclusions…
