Shaping Public Opinion: Crash Course Government and Politics #34

his constant eagle punching is the only thing getting me through my American government course

Thanks!

Why is spiritual opinion crushed from any worldly political propaganda?

Thank you for your videos. My brain works a different way, and visually helps me out a lot more than reading.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Great content

Excuse me, this is five years old, not three years old. ;D

im just here because im a student why are so many people selectively here-

White and Gold

Respect for getting opinions from Pewdiepie

How can someone look fat and skinny at the same time? Bravo Craig, bravo...

"Imagine a world with no liberals" You mean Mississippi? No thanks

It must be a tenuous position at the top.

Online schooling begins

how do current events shape public opinion?

watching in 2020, even more relevant than 2015!

I hate this man

Just a small suggestion do not speak too fast in your videos

5 years still media is the most powerful

Who is here in 2020

Thank you Crash Course for making the materials interesting enough to focus on

I get my opinions from pewdiepie did not age well

This is a great overview.

cool, but too many stripes.

DAMN I WATCHED THIS 3 YEARS LATER

2019 still pretty relevant

I also get all of my news from Pewdiepie 😂

This video is really interesting to watch after learning about the Facebook bots that helped influence voters in 2016. My sister voted for Trump and, when I asked why as this was against her own interests (she uses welfare resources which he has spoken out against), she started saying all of these things about Clinton that were exaggerated or untrue. I asked where she got this info from and she told me... Facebook. Facepalm If she had voted for him, or against her, being accurately informed, I wouldn't have been so frustrated. About 3 days after he was elected, and she saw the outcry, she regretted it and realized she'd been fooled. I totally understand why my dad supports Trump, as his values and interests are upheld, but my sister was completely fooled and voted against her own best interest. The Electoral College doesn't seem to help protect us from this self destructive ignorance. So... I'm wondering what can be done. Censorship is a bad idea, but being able to say anything and having poorly educated masses is resulting in inaccurate understandings of the world. So, what can we do?

Everyone should have a say in what will happen, because we all live side by side with each other, and it would not be fair if someone was left out. Also, each vote makes a difference in the ways that we live. It is always important to to share your opinion. The way you vote will affect many people, and their everyday life.

Poodiepie

IT SURE IS 2018 NOW

Only was necessary to see 0.28 seconds to realize that your 'theory' is wrong! Public Opinion has nothing related to a personal opinion. Public opinion is derivate from top to bottom. Then what the subject without power or leadership think does not matter. See Elisabeth Noelle-Newmann and Bernays theory.

I'm disappointed the word propaganda was never used. I guess in america its only known as public relations.

3 years later and I'm watching this =)

"even though its three years old" looks at date this was posted 3 what three? theres no 3 its 4 (at first I read it wrong and thought it was 3 years. unless I did the math wrong. it is 2018 and that was posted 2015 so)

whoa... how did you know I would watch this video is exactly three years...

helped my 3 years later !! thanks guys!!

This is so much more relevant today than it was 2 years ago.

So PBS told Stan to tell Craig to tell us viewers to think for our selves? hhhhuuuuummmmmmm.

Damn, I forgot all about that dress thing

IIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTSSSSSSSS PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Woah, I am watching this 3 years old. How did he know??
