I have to write an essay on the following:

In a nation defined by video games, reality TV, and virtual friendships, with a White House that has perfected the art of politics as public relations, what is reality to Americans today? And did we ever have a grasp of it?

I already asked a similar question and got good replies. However, none of them really answered the second part of the question: if americans ever had a touch with reality in the first place? I think that we did have it once, before world war ii, and all these inventions like virtual video games, reality tv, etc. How about you? Can you give specific reasons for why you believe we did ever have a grasp of reality?

Thanks,
the Gibbler

He is out of federal loan funding and is currently seeking a cosigner. He's also working full-time but he has limited time in which to finish because the university is phasing out his program in January 2008! He has 4 courses to go including his dissertation. Does anyone know of a good grant he could apply for or perhaps, an organization that could help him secure the loan?

The concept "dumbing down" can point to a variety of different things but the concept always involves a claim about the simplification of culture, education, and thought, a decline in creativity and innovation, a degradation of artistic, cultural, and intellectual standards, or the undermining of the very idea of a standard, and the trivialisation of cultural, artistic, and academic creations.

Lots of white people I know love $ too much. All they talk about is how they are going to make an extra dollar. They seem to forget about the beautiful things of life. I cant even hang out with my white friends anymore. They make me feel like I need to worry about $. I make good money, but I do not feel like I need it to make me happy. Are you guys naturally greedy or is this something your parents teach you? Look at all the corporations damaging the earth....They are all run by white people.

During the vietname war, even though we, as america, were losing the war terrbily, we were being told that we were actually winnin. was this lie told to us by the government or the media.

from what i remember, before that time, the government and media were on the same side. however, the government had decieved the media into believeing we were winning, which, in turn told us (the common people) that we were winning. Is this true because if it is, then the media can't be blamed for that can it? Or was it the media who already knew the truth but they did not convey it to us?
