Media coverage gives voters an impression of the candidates.
Because much of media coverage comes in very brief news segments and even short "sound bites," it tends to provide an impression of the candidates, without necessarily providing in-depth presentation and analysis of their views. This varies, of course, depending on which "media" you have in mind with the question. Committed news organizations which employ highly skilled journalists will do deeper pieces on candidates and their views or policies -- see, for instance, articles in The New York Times or Washington Post or The Atlantic.
There are many new forms of media--such as social media websites and politically-aligned cable networks--where people can go to get biased perspectives and be told how to vote or not to vote. But the most respected media outets strive to present a full picture and cover all candidates. Still, because most voters will watch or read only portions of news media coverage, the best answer is that media tends to give voters an impression of candidates -- which sometimes is less complete than the full picture.

One big change in the global economy after World War II, as compared to before the war, was a pattern of steady growth. From 1950 to 1973, the average annual GDP growth of market economies in the developed world averaged around 5% and remained rather steady. This was a strong improvement over the convulsions of the Depression that had happened prior to the Second World War.
Also over the decades after the World Wars, the global economy became more interconnected than ever before as well. Granted, during the Cold War years there was a wall (or shall we say an iron curtain) between the connected economies of the democratic countries and the connected economies of the Soviet bloc of nations. But eventually the communist system would collapse, and the increasing globalization of economies would continue and accelerate into the 21st century.
As nations like the United States have shifted more and more toward service economies rather than manufacturing economies, developing nations of the world have advanced strongly in the global economy through industrialization and growth of industrial production. So now there are new economic powerhouses in the world, such as India and China, which played a much smaller role in the global economy a century ago.
Answer:The Biblical judges are described in the Hebrew Bible, and mostly in the Book of Judges, as people who served roles as military leaders in times of crisis, in the period before an Israelite monarchy was established.
In 1863, the nature of Civil War shifted. On a January 1st of that year, President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing slaves in the Confederate states... With the Emancipation Proclamation, the struggle between North and South transformed into a war to end slavery.
