Question 7: In 1938 the H. G. Well's novel "The War of the Worlds" was famously broadcasted on the radio as part of a Halloween episode. This novel, though a work of fiction, was widely misinterpreted as an actual alien invasion due to the broadcast being treated so seriously by the radio channel and the narrator Orson Welles. The hysteria that was caused by this could be accredited to a suspension of disbelief fueled by a lack of media literacy, which is understandable because the radio was a relatively new medium at the time and people weren't used to fictitious radio broadcasts. This phenomenon of the masses not being able to be as critical as they ought to be when new technology and artforms are concerned, returned somewhat during the release of a certain movie from the past few decades that was also widely misbelieved to be real and authentic. This movie was so revolutionary in its genre, that it spawned an entirely new genre of its own as people thought it was real and the story kind of leaked through into the real world. What is the name of the movie I'm talking about? Answer: The Blair Witch Project (Pirez)
