Abstract: 
The mass media, including highly accessible sources like the news, newspapers, and especially the Internet, is taking over the way things are communicated in the world we live in. I think because people are over-exposed and deluged in these mass media sources, they might be losing their ability to think for themselves about the many current events and issues that are reported to them; and that they are being controlled more and more by the biased mass media. I think that this is a modern tragedy, and I view with displeasure how truths can be completely concealed by the mass media from the people around the world. I wanted to let my viewers have a breather by helping them approach various world issues with humor rather than suffocating seriousness, and also help them think for themselves by giving them an alternate approach to these issues.
