5. Baudrillard and
the News
 Remember that Baudrillard
wrote an article called "The
Gulf War did not take place“?
 In it he suggests that the
Media set the agenda on the
narrative of war - the war we
saw on TV did not match real
events.
(they don’t show all truths therefore this limits
knowledge/power)

10. However what happens
when we start to believe
that this "Simulation" is
actual reality?
