Whoever controls the media, controls the mind. Though the platforms of mass media and debate have changed almost beyond recognition over recent decades, that essential truth remains the same. The arrival event has caused not just widespread panic, but also widespread opportunism - for many, the hysteria caused by this grandest of revelations is the ideal way to control hearts and minds. Conspiracy theories, ultra-nationalism, radicalization, and even misplaced religious awe abound, and it is important that cooler heads manage the message before society falls into greater division than ever before. Maintaining order and coordinating Earth's response to both this and any future visitations is crucial, and there is much to be gained from establishing new ways in which the world's leaders might address our species as a whole. It is increasingly likely that humanity will one day be dispersed throughout the stars, and if we are to retain any sense of togetherness, we will need effective lines of communication across worlds.
