7 0

The media ultimately is the "watchdog" for the government. The media (ideally) is supposed to report on things going on in the government to inform the citizens in a truthful and unbiased manner. Media can influence the government by reporting on issues, especially during election times. Once they inform the public, then they go out and vote, which in turn may affect the government greatly.

The term watchdog refers to <u><em>watchdog journalism</em></u>, where the media will report on hot issues, specifically where the public calls for change.

¿Cómo recibieron los aborígenes a los conquistadores?
Leokris [45]

Durante la conquista en el mundo indígena se observó una gran división: se ubicaron por un lado quienes se opusieron al invasor y por el otro los que colaboraron por diversas razones con los europeos. Decapitaron al "cuerpo militar" de los indígenas y debido a esto los indígenas que prefirieron colaborar con los forasteros recibieron muy luego el apelativo de "indios amigos".

En resumen no fue de modo amistoso al principio, después viendo que los europeos eran mas fuertes y contaban corarmamento se unieron a ellos  y lograron insertarse en la comunidad.
