Media and Politics

http://www.economist.com/node/17526060
in this article the media is acting as a watchdog, meaning that it merely has information on what the politicians doing, in this case Clinton is talking with foreign leaders.

this article represents the media behaving as a scorekeeper.

this article i believe acts as a gatekeeper considering most U.S. citizens would not know much about Cuba in the first place, let alone care unless the media brought it up for them. e.g. this article.
