They can even influence how we raise our kids, how we vote and volunteer in our communities, as well as the future of our wildlands and wildlife. If the stories they create are misleading or false in some way, viewers will misunderstand the issues and react in inappropriate ways.

This life has become a turmoil, a travail of endless striving. One wonders if man, a human being, will ever live on this earth peacefully.
