9/11 in the media

Personally I can not tell the difference between Iraq and Iran maybe I could on a Map(that was labeled) but if it dealing with the people that come from those countries i could tell them apart. When watching the news or seeing pictures of these places I wouldn't even guess at what's what. That is probably the case for alot of people because until the war noone ever learned about these countries or saw them.What Jackson is trying to imply in his song is the news stations they just blend it all together. So when they talk about "terrorists" they show either Iraq or Iran so for alot of people it is very hard to pick apart what belongs to what. The song "where were you" is just for profit because in his lyrics he took stuff like where people were and what was happening and just shoved it all in a song and in his chours starts talking about God and what he gave us. The line"Thank god you had sombody to love" what if someone loss the person they loved that day their going to listen to this and it will bring back bad memory or sad emotions. Alan Jackson is really taking chances with this song and like in his song he writes/sings "Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watching /and turn on "I Love Lucy"reruns" I don't understand why someone would want to sit there and watch movies or reruns when a event like this has happen like wouldn't you be watching the news. 9/11 is very unreal like a movie the people there were not actors they were regular people just trying to go somewhere that day their tears were real and their lives changed big time that day. If it was a movie everything would be fake and you wouldn't get a sad or angry feeling watching it because you know it's just actors and noone is really dead or dying.For somthing happen so fast it has changed the world like even to this day people are dying of lung cancer and other deadly infections from the dust and dirty that covered the streets . The production of these films are very different "united 93"is actually showing somthing you might not have know about that happen on the planes.The movie "world trade centre"is very overdone they took what happen and added in alot to it.These movies are just for entertainment and profit because it isn't the real thing they can't help us prevent another attack because noone knows what is going on in the mind of crazy people who like to blow up things. These producers are using everything they can to make money and it's very disturbing that people want to watch this event over and over again.
