Q1- do you agree with the writer saying :``Wag the Dog'' cites Grenada as an example of how easy it is to whip up patriotic frenzy, and how dubious the motives sometimes are" why/why not?

"There are two major ways in which distraction can be used to manipulate the media. The first, as exemplified by the 1997 film, Wag the Dog, is a created by way of a conveniently timed major event. A political leader will start a war or create another large incident to divert the public attention from certain issues that threaten the regime or leadership. In the case of Wag the Dog, a president creates a fake war to draw attention away from a sex scandal with a teenage girl."

Q-2 do you think movies created these tactics of manipulation and distraction or it is really happening in the real world and the movies are just a mean of showing it to the world?
