Where can true power be found?

The power of words is seldom recognized by the average person in this day and age but the truth is that often reporters have more power than the politicians they are reporting on. Often people will say that the president is the most powerful person in the United States but the truth is that the most powerful people or entities are the media and the chairman of the federal reserve. Because honestly people care about one thing more than anything else and that is money. And the chairman controls the economy of the U.S. that is why I laugh when presidential candidates talk about how they will improve the economy, the chairman of the federal reserve is honestly the one man that can greatly influence our economy. But back on topic, the media is probably the most powerful entity when it comes to influencing the hearts and minds of the public. An example that comes to mind would be in the 40’s and 50’s when one senator McCarthy began his witch hunt to attack anything that even resembled communism, sometimes breaking the very constitution he claimed to be protecting. He had scared and charmed the public into believing that there was a threat to them that did not even exist. No one could stand against him but a CBS anchorman, Ed Murrow, took him on exposing the senator and turning a country against him. This one feet alone proves the power of the media but the question you must ask yourself now is, do you trust the current liberal media with this power?
