New Project Guidelines

I will be researching the American mass media's effect on the public perception of politics and politicians.  I will analyze the way the media portrayed the Clinton and Watergate scandals, and how these portrayals impacted the public's perception on the government.  Using political cartoons and a brief history of the media, I will attempt to show my audience how to analyze the media's information on political agendas, and determine whether or not the facts or biased.  This will uncover the centuries-long power of the media to shift public opinion in american politics.
