Assignment 2B

Corporations have been influencing news sources for many years to only feed us information that will benefit them. If a big corporation decides to buy out an independent news source, they can persuade journalists to change their wording to only speak in their favor. This lets a lot of big corporations get away with a lot of injustices as the journalists write about only their accomplishments and the little good deeds that they may do for the local communities. The article I read as an example “Could A Small Nuclear War Reverse Global Warming?”  was published by the Huffington Post. The Huffington Post was purchased by AOL. AOL has also purchased many other corporations in the past as well. The article defends the use of Nuclear weapons and states that it can be beneficial to the environment. They vaguely talk about how it has killed many people in the past. A mainstream new source would  not defend the use of nuclear weapons.
