The photos are placed next to the corresponding sections which help make her argument clearer. She also relates her point to John Berger, as she tries to demystify these advertisements in a similar way he tried to do so about artwork in his essay titled “Ways of Seeing.” Berger demystifies art by suggesting the use of image boards to restore meaning to the paintings, while…

In the 1960’s the United States started firing up nuclear plants. On June 12, 1960, the Fermi Nuclear Reactor stopped and then restarted. Concerns about safety, and pressure from the unions and the public, the courts completely prohibited further construction on the site; however, the US Supreme Court allows it to restart.

Bright, dramatic, and to the point, Meet the Press is meant to touch on important political happenings in a balanced perspective; it instead falls short. Meet the Press gives the idea it is offering a fair platform to the presidential candidates by inviting individuals to debate and discuss.
