Media manipulation

Where the media controls the news via print and television, restricting what people have access to therefore controlling public opinion, what you dont know might just hurt you!
or,
the less you know the more you believe.

Also extends into the movie making business which is controlled by small groups over many generations.

I believe americans unfortunatly suffer from media manipulation. Europeans had a much different coverage of what happend to the fourth jet on Sep. the 11th.

space-time manipulation

the most bad*** superpower ever; allows time travel, teleportation, stopping time, slowing down time, and, if you're desperate enough, rewinding time

Example Sentence: "Don't make me use my space-time manipulation to go back in time and scramble your mom's eggs."

manipulationship 

a relationship based on where the other person can get you in your life, your career, or social strata.

in a manipulationship, you either play the people in your life to achieve your own evil outcomes, or you are played by the manipulator to achieve their end and to the detriment of you.

people who are star fuckers and only speak to people they think are in position of "power" in their professional sphere and ignore others.

media manipulation

The practice of claiming that one or more media outlets lean to the left or right of politics in an underhanded effort to sell advertising for large corporate conglomerates. Often accompanied by the overt insinuation that 'normal' people are stupid and can't recognize any bias in any way or make their own decisions about the 'news.'

I sure wish I could tell if NPR or Fox news was biased or practiced media manipulation, but being such a dumb average American, they probobly know best. I'll let them tell me what to think.

manipulating 

1: The process of changing something, such as a material. Often used in fine arts and design.

2: What people who are no better than shitty little school bullies are doing to others in order to have their way and gain control. Pretty much another form of brainwashing.

"Clara was manipulating the clay into the shape of a bowl"

"Max was manipulating the others into believing that his ex was a bitch, despite the fact that she had done nothing wrong, as a means of gaining power and control over his friends because he was insecure about himself"

"He was manipulating his 'girlfriend' into falling for him and feeling sympathy for him, when actually he didn't care about her or her feelings and was merely playing her for a fool; he wanted to get away with crashing at her place without paying the rent and leach her cash off of her because he couldn't be fucked to take responsibility for himself."

Ellie: "How has she not seen that he's manipulating her into giving him money and a place to stay! Jesus"

Fiona: "I know, he did the exact same thing to me, except he just fucked me over and decided it would be a good idea to cheat on me with her once I found out. It's a good thing I did find out really."

Ellie: "Yeah I heard he has a reputation for targeting girls who like him....."
