History

Answer:

Explanation:

The longer-term purpose of the doctrine was to establish the idea that the US would oppose communist efforts to spread their influence around the globe. Thus, the Truman Doctrine can be said to have had both an immediate purpose and a purpose that was more long-term. check Approved by eNotes Editorial

Its immediate purpose was to prevent the Soviet Union from dominating the exit from the Black Sea into the Aegean Sea and, from there, into the Mediterranean Sea.

This was the start of the policy of “containment.”  The US did not want communism to spread out of Eastern Europe.  The longer-term purpose of the doctrine was to establish the idea that the US would oppose communist efforts to spread their influence around the globe.

News and the Culture of Lying: How Journalism Really Works, Paul H. Weaver (The Free Press, 1994).

Who Stole the News?: Why We Can’t Keep Up with What Happens in the World, Mort Rosenblum (John Wiley & Sons, 1993).

Tainted Truth: The Manipulation of Fact in America, Cynthia Crossen (Simon & Schuster, 1994).

The U.S. press, like the U.S. government, is a corrupt and troubled institution. Corrupt not so much in the sense that it accepts bribes but in a systemic sense. It fails to do what it claims to do, what it should do, and what society expects it to do.

The news media and the government are entwined in a vicious circle of mutual manipulation, mythmaking, and self-interest. Journalists need crises to dramatize news, and government officials need to appear to be responding to crises. Too often, the crises are not really crises but joint fabrications. The two institutions have become so ensnared in a symbiotic web of lies that the news media are unable to tell the public what is true and the government is unable to govern effectively. That is the thesis advanced by Paul H. Weaver, a former political scientist (at Harvard University), journalist (at Fortune magazine), and corporate communications executive (at Ford Motor Company), in his provocative analysis entitled News and the Culture of Lying: How Journalism Really Works.

Which is a true statement about the Federalists? They feared that Congress would become too powerful. They believed in a system
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
The true statement would be"They believed in a system of checks and balances."

The Federalists wanted a strong, central government, so the first option would be incorrect. Also, they didn't fear the presidency would become too powerful, making the third option incorrect. The last option is incorrect because the Federalists supported the ratification of Constitution as they noticed the weaknesses of the Articles.

Hope this helps! :)
