Manipulation.

An art or practice for the Greater Good or evil. Well perhaps not evil. For good and.... not so good. But Anakin Skywalker had been manipulated brilliantly by using fear to protect the lives of his unborn children and his wife. And then.... well.... we all know happened next.

Lisa opted to remain quiet and listen to all the answers. Her eyes widened at the mention of the Neo-Alliance. She hadn’t been around last year at Hogwarts and had known little of the Wizarding World but was that the group that caused such chaos last year? She still didn’t know the full extent to what transpired but the mandatory therapy sessions made it sound...... very bad. Lisa wrote the name in her notebook. She would ask questions later.

She nodded in agreement with Ivy and Remy’s answers. Lisa knew of Rita Skeeter’s colorful opinions on the late headmaster Albus Dumbledore. She did find the idea of a gossip magazine at Hogwarts comical. Really ought to look at restarting that... What mischief could she cause through her imagination....? and while her scheming to get Mamie and her brother together had fallen through, she was determined to get back into the scheming. Maybe this time it would be all centered around the reasons WHY mistletoe shouldn’t exist. Lecherous things that she wanted to burn. Burn them all.

It took her a moment but she raised her hand. She had a textbook answer for this question. “Some media outlets can be controlled by a governing body or political party. These groups can practice censorship where they can hide things from ever being published for the ‘greater good’ of the country.” She did hand quotes and all at the mention of the greater good. “It’s wrong to censor... I think it is. Isn’t it better to know the truth?”
