My topic for module-2 reaction paper was on news, data, and other media means of delivering information to the public. When gathering all the information and reflecting on my personal experience when watching, reading or listening to the news outlets was very addicting. To see news clips from the wars past or deployments after the fact was real-time history for most of us (me), yet  our families, friends and other members not physically at that location waiting to hear something can be very overwhelming. My question is the methods and absorbing of news: Are citizens informed about terrorism and is it overwhelming?
