Anonymous leaves thrown into the wind of sensationalism, which lead the public to alarming news, full of sensationalism and lack of foundation or proper investigation. Faced with an evil that society suffers, generated by the relative truths that the press ends up erroneously disseminating, turning into an uncontrollable power. This is the portrait of a press that is more driven by passion than reason, that does not care about informing, but manipulates, distorts facts deliberately or irresponsibly. (Unknown author) Based on the excerpt above, answer: a) The author criticizes the press, indicated by the expressions 'Anonymous leaves thrown into the wind of sensationalism' and 'relative truths that the press ends up erroneously disseminating', which suggest manipulation of information. b) The media influences public opinion, being able to educate and raise awareness about relevant issues, but also manipulate and distort facts. Responsibility and transparency in coverage are essential, as well as educating the public to critically analyze the information received.
