Stormy Daniels' 60 Minutes interview social media reactions
A president. An adult film star. An alleged payoff. Its little wonder why social media had such a strong reaction to the latest chapter in Stormy Daniels’s alleged affair with Donald Trump.

Perhaps the biggest bombshell was that someone connected to Trump threatened her after she reportedly sold her story about the affair to In Touch Weekly back in 2011. Daniels claimed that an unknown man approached her and her infant daughter in a Las Vegas parking lot and told her to ‘leave Trump alone’ and that ‘it would be a shame if something happened to her mom,’ referencing Daniels’s daughter. The incident left the former adult film star ‘rattled’ but she declined to report it to the police out of fear for her own safety.
Another part of the interview that raised a lot of eyebrows was Daniels’s assertion that Trump said she was ‘special’ and reminded him of his daughter Ivanka.

... president. She said that she wanted all the information released because she thought the Warren Commission could not find the real reason behind Kennedy’s assassination. There is plenty of evidence out there that shows that the Warren Report was false and not truthfully put together.

The documentary zeroes in on the politicizing of Fox's reporting, from daily memos deciding on what topics to focus on and which to avoid all together. It discusses the trivializing of the "Fox News Alert," originally conceived as an attention-grabbing device for earth-shaking events, but soon used to report the daily movements of J-Lo and Martha Stewart.

With a devastatingly crucial issue such as women being shunned by the media, it’s not okay to have the ideas of other people in your work. In the article, “Controversial Hillary Cover of Time Illuminates Sexism in the Media” by Marianne Schnall, implies that the media is negatively affecting the chances of women becoming successful with all the sexism it is portraying.

As media has grown it has allowed for easier use for the average individual. This paper will examine how Donald Trump has used the media available today and how effective he has been. To begin, Trump’s background must be looked at to gain an understanding of how he came to the place he is today.
