I'm sorry, this is a short answer forum designed for text specific questions. We are unable to assist students with writing assignments. To clarify the question your teacher is asking, you need to first be aware of the text in question, and second, apply your own experience to the answer you give. In essence, you're being asked how you thing politics influences media today. You can use a variety of examples from modern media.... films based upon conflict or war..... which way do they lean. Are these films used to promote an agenda or are they examples of true history. Television shows also tend to lean toward the right or left in the political arena. Use what you know about the shows or films you watch and think carefully about whether they have a political message..... most do. Note, this question calls for your opinion, there is no right or wrong answer.
