Reflection on 'Fake News'

I had a difficult time thinking of someone to watch for some fake news, I decided on the SNL family. I searched youtube and watched Tina Fey do an impression and make fun of Sarah Palin. I watched a couple clips of this, which I must say were really funny. Then I searched youtube again to find Sarah Palin in an interview, I watched a couple of these as well.
The Tina Fey impressions made Sarah Palin seem dumb. Like how she couldn't handle the question being directed at her, or how she would answer but go off on a completely different tangent that did not make any sense, or even her appearance. Using these as an example, one might get the wrong impression of Sarah Palin. They might take the harsh yet funny criticism of her and make up their mind about her. Which is really not the way to do that, because most people have never even seen Sarah Palin speak, so they really jump to a conclusion with out really knowing what it is she had said or what her message is. Another thing to take into consideration is the fact that SNL and/or Tina Fey, this is their comedic opinion of her. Their opinion which is then portrayed on national television just so happens to shape a huge opinion of americans. I am not taking a side, but I am saying is to take what SNL has to offer at face value: comedy. And if you do happen to watch Sarah Palin speak at any point in time and you do agree that she is a flaming idiot, than go ahead and say that opinion of her. But until you've seen her and you've critiqued her don't let someone else's opinion become your opinion.
