The press chooses of what we all see and hear, a specially how we hear about it. They portray news in the way they see it to be most interesting. They exaggerate and lie about the truth and sell it to us.
We as a large group decide how we respond and we make a difference by using that information as a group. This way we are a power, a power of the masses. Together we can do so many beautiful and horrible things.
A nice example of a group being more powerful than one is; if you snap one twig it will snap easily, but when you try this with ten twigs it will not go as easily. Another example is when you work together on a project you will finish it more quickly than when you do this on your own.
As a mass we have done many things. Forbidden slavery, start wars, looked for a lost child called Madeline (everyone has probably heard about it), set up whole connections through myspace and many many more!
The Power of the Masses can be dangerous as wonderful. I am not yet agreeing on it to be more wonderful than dangerous or the other way around. I have read a wonderful blog about the power of the masses on the internet.

Horrific and warm images about what a mass can achieve!
