After watching "Wagtail Dog"

I first heard that this movie was in Bai Yansong's book, and Bai Yansong revealed that it was a movie about TV media manipulating public opinion to change the presidential election. Hence the interest to see it. The film wasn't as exciting as expected, and the storyline wasn't as engrossing. I didn't pay much attention during the entire viewing process. It seems that I have to say that the subject I want to express is good. It profoundly illustrates that with the development of the times and the advancement of technology, TV media seems to be able to control the social wind direction. That is, it is possible to confuse black and white with falsehoods. Especially the advanced nature of science and technology shown in the video of the girl running with the kitten in her arms. Obviously, the TV media is even more powerful with the help of technology. Undoubtedly, this is terrifying. Therefore, we must learn to distinguish phenomena, to seek the truth, and not to blindly follow.
