Vernon God Little Message

After reading Vernon God Little, I came to think about how much the media can affect people's opinions and thoughts, and how whenever something goes wrong, we always want something or someone to blame, and often will go as far as it takes to find a scapegoat. I think that DBC Pierre wasn't necessarily trying to convey a single message, but he wanted to open minds to new perspectives on America as a society and the media and its powers. By providing a satirical, funny point of view on these issues, Pierre wanted reading this book makes you think about them in a new sense and become more aware of all sides of every story.
