President Spock

[Nictoshek]

Americans’ views of deadly viruses such as Ebola are shaped by Hollywood movies such as Outbreak and Contagion, and when the prospect of a global pandemic arises, we expect a Hollywood president to take charge. Obama’s Spock-like demeanor and hollow assurances about what experts are telling him feel incongruous.

Interesting analyses of the methodology of the President in crises management. With this, the profound emage to the public mindset as promoted by The Hollywood film industry with the entertainment field.

It would be most logical to separate fantasy from reality in what the entertainment film industry creates, but it so appears this is not so. For as presented, Hollywood fantasy is in this stead, withen the public mindset, is taken as fact. Logic would then bring forward that in the stead of entertainment value, Hollywood is in fact a vehicle of educational and presenter of facts in a manner that is understandable to the viewing public.

A very dangerious situation if not properly managed.
