... y would seek an outlet, either exploding into
acts of extreme violence or manifesting itself as
symptoms of mental illness. But there is no direct
evidence for this conclusion (Aronson, 1995, p.
258). President Clinton looks at it in a different
light saying, for people who have never been
taught to understand the consequences of their
action these things can unintentionally set forth
a chain reaction of ever more impulsive behavior.

allegations upon the novel Heart of Darkness,
calling it a vile and most ungodly novel that only
seeks to set the black race as a footstool of the
white race. However, one must realize that there
is a much deeper meaning to the novel than that of
blatant racism. It is, in fact, a connection with
the past that shows both the mindset, as well as

don't know everything there is to know about this
character. Hamlet actually tells other characters
that there is more to him than meets the eye

the facts, with perhaps some objective analysis.
However, for business purposes, TV news broadcasts
use dramatic, usually violent stories and images
to capture and maintain an audience, under the
pretense of keeping it informed. What we see and
