Wag The Dog Answers.

Derek Gibbs

Period 1

Journalism



1. I would say that "Wag The Dog" metaphor to me would mean that the media would be the dog and the people would be the tail. Goes with what the media says.

2. Conrad Breen was the media speaker for the president.

3.The producer has way more money then the president does, as well as in the media who ever controls the media controls everything.

4.Nobody has even seen the war they all believe its really happening, even though its only been heard by the human ear, the media can say what ever they want.

5.Back in the day the major thing was the media, yes you can get information from TV's or phones but the major one would be the media. they control a lot of peoples ears.

6. I would say the producer because he has a bigger variety of media and people would listen moreto him.

7. Its mostly advertising, most are to see where people would spend there time where they eat or where they spend any time.

Where: Iowa,


Why: He just said that his decision to skip his debate might have lead to 2nd in the the election.

How: He just didn't go to to his election not sure why but he's regretting it now.


Why did i choose this? I chose this article because voting will be a major thing that's going to be starting soon and its important to be focusing on. For me a huge majority of the teens that can vote haven't and that's not acceptable because we don't want someone like Donald Trump president well at least i don't.
