Media from a Journalist's Point of View

http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/Snea/start/188/stop/514

  This video is very interesting because it from Alexandra Pelosi who is a journalist. She talks about the relationship between the media and the presidential candidates. This is interesting because she talks about not the politics but how the media changes things so much that the journalists and the media are really the only ones who know the truth, where as regular people do not always know the truth. I liked how she talked about how different they are in real life compared to how the media portrays them. I really liked the quote she says, "I don't think the media really serves the American public". I thought this was interesting because she is a journalist and part of the media, so it was weird that she had this stance. This was not able to be embedded but I really liked this video and thought is was worth showing. Clicking the link should bring you to a link that has the times already edited in. If not the clip I am emphasizing is from 3:00 to 8:31min.
