- The findingDulcinea Blog: Time to Stop Teaching that ".Govs" Can Be Trusted
Sometime in the mid-1990s, someone created a tutorial that said that an important aspect of judging a Web site’s trustworthiness is its top-level domain, such as “.com,” “.edu,” “.org” and “.gov.” . . . . . . . . Teaching this does more harm than good. . . . . . . . First of all, it's simplistic. . . . . . . . . . More importantly, an indispensible aspect to determining the accuracy of information is objectivity.

- The Living Room Candidate - Presidential Campaign Commercials 1952-Present
Television commercials use all the tools of fiction filmmaking, including script, visuals, editing, and performance, to distill a candidate's major campaign themes into a few powerful images. Ads elicit emotional reactions, inspiring support for a candidate or raising doubts about his opponent. While commercials reflect the styles and techniques of the times in which they were made, the fundamental strategies and messages have tended to remain the same over the years.
