This second half of The Influencing Machine was a bit more entertaining to me than the first half. It talked about more recent things, although it also talked about some historical important events. I learned above all, that objectivity in journalism is essential yet impossible. That's why journalists will always have some type of bias in their writing. Indirectly, we have been influenced by what they write and believe. Journalists deliver to a machine – the media. That's why we have to have our own beliefs and independence so that this machine doesn’t take over us.
