While mass media can have its flaws when acting as a public sphere, there are still opportunities that could be explored.

To what extent can mass media, as a platform for diverse public discourse, influence the government's decision-making process when constructing a more inclusive (Pluralist) society?

# data[].attributes.body
Mass media can reflect the growing societal diversification that we are faced with.

# data[].attributes.body
To recap on what I've been saying so far, while mass media possesses the power of shaping public opinion and influencing government decision-making, its flaws should be addressed as well in order to genuinely foster inclusivity. But it's alright if we remain optimistc and openminded. As citizens, it's also up to us to actively seek out diverse viewpoints and engage in political discussions.

To start off my presentation today, I'd like to first introduce you to this man, Frederick Douglass, who envisoned a Pluralist Utopia in the immediate aftermath of the American Civil War, where freedom and equality would prevail. However, his hopes were not fully realized and his grand visions of an inclusive society remained out of reach. Fast forward to today, we live in an entirely different reality where it is more diverse and saturated with media. So in my presentation today I'd like to explore a bit about the media's growing influence and its potential when it comes to housing political discourse.
