Do gangs have power?

"With their huge influence in all aspects of society, the media glorifies gangs & actually makes them feel empowered. Media typically refers to the internet, movies, music, the news, television, newspapers and other avenues of information. Most coverage of gangs, no matter how well-intentioned, almost always ends up glorifying gangs and the gang life."
