Entertainment and Politics

Do politicians and the media use entertainment to distract the public from important issues? If so, for what reasons and to what end?

Hi Reptillian,

Do politicians and the media use entertainment to distract the public from important issues? If so, for what reasons and to what end?

I think in the case of media it is actually to point to important issues. Jon Stewart and Rush Limbaugh are masters at using parodies to demonstrate a political point.
