Representation

One could wonder though why people follow one representation of a person over another. Our society uses the media as a guide to life's decisions. We allow what is stated and expressed on a media to always be considered credible even if we know an accusation to be false. Media representation has always been seemingly different than I guess one could call "actual representation". The media is able to create an image of a person and apply media representation to this image. The media creates a false meaning and exploits its due to human curiosity. The true meaning that they speak of is lost in transition when it becomes a media representation. The media has always been sought after as a reliable source however this image they created of themselves has been blurred and they to have multiple meanings.
