Antiwar means Antivoice

     The use of media to bring the world together, showing aspects of life that people may have never come to know without it, is just one of the millions of reasons why news and other pop culture outlets are utilized by billions across the world. Unfortunately for society the news will rarely if ever tell the full story.

    The first ever recorded use of a newsletter was found to be in the year 1609 by Johann Carolus in Germany. Ever since leaps and bounds have been made as the demand for people to learn all that was going on just outside their doors increased. The news has seen and reported the rise and fall of economies, entire civilizations, and governments and with the new age its only fitting that the ladder have its way.

    ANTIWAR is a cite used as a sort of backdoor into the parts of society that mainstream media has yet to (and may never) pick up. They use hyperlinks to other news sources that do well to explain the current role of the U.S government along with others in their parts of the various wars going on. Even ones the general public may not even know about. These sources and their information being somewhat 'hidden in plain sight' as to distract parties from learning of all that is going on. But even so, would the public listen?

    Their have been concerns brought up over what the media chooses to show and chooses to write on but these concerns have been few and widespread. When the question of 'Have you seen the news recently?' is proposed, many are left discussing the same 10 stories on repeat, while a million circle right outside of their door. 

    While the media serves the population as a tool for connecting the world and shedding light on many aspects of life, it has fallen short of delivering the complete picture. From newsletters to deemed alternative sources like Antiwar the struggle to uncover the hidden truths beyond what is given, remains constant. As consumers, we must remain steadfast, checking backgrounds and seeking the diverse perspectives not awarded to us. Only by this way can we break from the cycle of repetition and truly grasp the complexity and seriousness of global events.
