What role did the media and press have in the eventual fall of the wall? Why was the West trying so hard to show East Berliners what life was like in the West?

How do you think you would feel if you were living in Berlin while the wall was up and when it came down? Why do you think it felt so unbelievable to those who lived it?

I think it was extremely terrifying to wake up one day and see a huge wall, especially if you had family on the other side. people living on the east of germany had hardly any money or freedom so when the wall came down everyone was relieved. - Omar

I would feel worried if I woke up to a big wall.  I would've felt relieved when it came down and I think it felt unbelievable for those who lived through it because they were in such shock and disbelief.

# data[].attributes.body
i think i would feel relived happy and frustrated because it would be nice to have freedom and the frustrating part is that people were killed for trying to cross the wall now image how many people died to have their freedom that is very sad-esme

It was important to the Soviet Union to keep people from leaving East Berlin because of the population and both sides had very different lifestyles. They were trying so hard to make West Berlin look bad because they also said how they were very luxurious about 4x more than East side.

The radio was giving always honest news. People were able to record how life was and others saw the situation of living. Those from the West wanted to show the East Berliners that life in the west was not bad at all.

Personally i think that if i was living while the Berlin wall was up i would have felt many emotions like scared,sad,confused,worried and more because i wouldn't have known what was going to happen in the future. As when it would come down i would have been happy and relieved because i would know that better is yet to come. I think it felt unbelievable because for so many years they had seen a wall up and then out of the nowhere they were given the freedom to cross/go to the other side.

I feel they tried to make the west look bad so less people would try to leave and then the east would think they were so trapped. and they wanted to keep the people east because of population

# data[].attributes.body
the media playing a role in trying to show the east what freedoms the west had so sad that man got shot and just wanted better
