ICE Protesters and The News

The ICE protests are still going, even though the TV news seems to want to ignore them. That’s important. TV news influences opinion on a mass scale. It also directs people’s attention toward some topics and away from others. The news presented on TV can get us to focus on certain events and forget about others. We should not forget the shooting victims of the ICE goon squads.
