= Perception Management
|
||||
|
||||
== Purpose
|
||||
Explore the concept of Perception Management and "Softwar" and how the Internet, television, social media, and other sources are used for influencing people.
|
||||
|
||||
== Assignment
|
||||
|
||||
For several years, there has been an increase in the accusations that newspapers, network and cable news channels, and social media platforms haveb ecome less concerned about presenting unbiased facts and more concerned about pushing their own societal and political agendas.
|
||||
|
||||
Is this idea new? How does the Internet affect the potential for manipulation? Is this a U.S. phenomenon, or a global issue?
|
||||
|
||||
*This assignment should be individual effort. You may discuss the assignment with other students or individuals, but all answers must be your own work — or based on your own research/studying.*
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Deliverables
|
||||
A report using reasonable document settings for font, margins, etc. that contains answers/responses to the questions below.
|
||||
|
||||
Include appropriate references as footnotes, endnotes, or a references section.

The Old Guard had height requirements of 5'10" for grenadiers and 5'8" for chasseurs. @napoleon-old-guard.
|
||||
#note[It seems there's a distinct lack of research on this actually, there doesn't appear to a definitive source. Everyone is looking over at Wikipedia which points to my source. My source has a lack of sourcing specific pages and when searching for height, I am having trouble finding his guard height requirements that don't contradict other sources. For instance, when scouring "The Anatomy of Glory; Napoleon And His Guard, A Study in Leadership" by Commandant Henri Lachouque he mentions requirements being 5'6"" for grenadiers and 5'3" for chasseurs. I'm going to roll with the other numbers above as they seem more commonly agreed upon, but I can't find any actual primary sources for those numbers and the one primary source I can find contradicts those numbers!]

[
|
||||
*(5 points)* In 2-3 sentences, describe how being in a group with certain characteristics may skew perceptions. (You can use any kind of specialized group for this discussion — Olympic athletes, basketball players, etc. For example, look at a picture of Arnold Schwarzenegger with Shaquille O'Neal — does this mean Arnold is short?)
|
||||
#solve[
|
||||
I have an example from my own experiences for this, I bike ride with someone who is absurdly, absurdly strong relatively speaking and I thought until more recently, that I was _insanely_ weak on a bike compared to the average cyclist. Turns out being around physical freakshows with some folks prepping for competition gave me the false perception that their level of strength was normal. As a result, my perception of what is and isn't strong when it comes to cycling was massively skewed for the past several months.

I wholeheartedly believe that the global reach of mass media can provide intelligence information and influence behavior on a national scale (and frankly beyond).

#solve[
|
||||
In the "Killing Al Q'aida" slides @killing-al-qaida-slides there is a quote from Osama bin Laden quite literally stating that "...90% of the total preparation for battles [is the media war]..."; furthermore, Caro points out that "Global TV provides... real-time intelligence on most U.S. Government operations". I'd be a fool to disregard the President of SAGE and _Bin Laden_ of all people on whether or not media is effective for influencing behavior and gathering intelligence. Beyond that, political attack ads were extremely common leading up to the recent elections, Harris and Trump wouldn't run ads if they didn't believe it could impact the outcomes of the U.S. Presidential election. Those two points alone make it readily apparent that mass media absolutely influences national audiences and absolutely can be used to gather information on a national level.
