Week 10 EOC; The Law and Justice 2 Movies

In the both movies that we watched Erin Brocovich and Flash of Genius you see two sides of the spectrum with Lawyers. Everyone can argue that lawyers are slime but when it comes down to it people form their ideas by things that they watch. If you set two groups up in two different rooms and showed one of the rooms movies about how lawyers use and abuse and are just in the profession for the money then those people would assume that all lawyers were this way. If you took the people in the other room and showed them movies about lawyers who are there to do the right thing and who truly want to help people then that group would think highly about lawyers. My view of the law in this class has not changed. I truly think that there are good lawyers out there and that there are bad lawyers out there. Its not a base of opinion but fact there is no one person out there who knows every lawyers that there is. So we can not group everything that we know about lawyers on the bases of the media. We put to much thought about what is being said about people  on the media. Everyone should be able to tell you that the media focuses on the bad more so then the good.
