By Austin Colm ‘25
    The United States began as a nation founded on the ideals of independence and freedom for its citizens. Since then, politicians have constantly debated how much power the government should hold. Logically, as the power the government has increases, the individuals’ freedom decreases. Thus, giving the government more power would be contradictory to the values the nation was founded upon.

On April 1, 2022, “Morbius,” Sony’s newest Marvel movie, was released and immediately met with horrible reviews lampooning the film’s nonsensical story, terrible dialogue and sub-par special effects.

By Cayla McKay ‘25

When John F. Kennedy was running for president in 1960, he published an article in TV Guide about the potentially harmful effects of television, then still a recent invention, on the political process. Candidates would become heavily reliant on television’s abilities of mass communication, he warned, and that, to properly utilize its potential, they would in turn become dependent on sources of campaign funding to pay for these ads, damaging the accountability of presidential campaigns and their front-runners in the process. Additionally, candidates would become far more populist and vitriolic, focusing more on how they present themselves and their opinions rather than what those opinions actually are.
