The response to "The war of the worlds":Whether the fake news will cheat you or not

I haven't read the original science fiction named "The war of the worlds", so I just want to express my opinion about the essay, the conversation between TA and RK.After reading, I knew this story on the radio making a big mass in America, so I want to explore the reasons why a broadcast can make so many Americans trapped in panic.

1、FORM:The host changed the science fiction into the broadcast so that can make it more real and accurate.They can also use their voice to make the story emotional and vivid. In other word, broadcast spreads informations much more quickly then the books.There are so many clips in the radio play may make listeners nervous and anxious.And the interviewees are great actors,either.Their truly identities will make them being trusted more easily.

2、TIME AND PEOPLE'S EDUCATION LEVEL:We all know this incident happening in 1938. Even though it's a famous story in 1898,but many people have forgotten it.And the host changed the background of the story.1938 is a special year,this time is before the second world war.People were all frightened and be worried about the things happening surrounding them.
Unlike people in the modern society, people at that time knew few about science and technology.So they would be cheated more easily,maybe.

3、NATURE：People will feel nervous when they see something they haven't known before.They don't know how to handle or these things are beyond their control that they can't handle it.They can't suspect the trend of the things will be.That's the worst thing that they can imagine.

That's all.
If I had some new ideas,I will add it to my essay.And I hope everyone who read my essay can give your advice to me.
