Author of what? Political philosophy?

Author of books. The written word has probably done more to shape culture than any other medium.

I say musician. Maybe a street artist like banksy. I guess I'm interpreting influence as influence on social norms, constructs and political ideologies.

I suppose you exempt yourself from this argument.

What?

Any kind of author, particularly those who can grab the interest of young and simple minds. Screenplay for movies and storyline for computer games included. Those who can develop stories that make people understand why something happened on a psychological level and how it can be made to happen again or avoided in a real life situation. People develop most of their belief structure from a majority of their interest, the easiest one to include as such would be movies and TV-series.

Spite it, I do not believe movies and games are reasons for crime, much more important factors are.

Author. Or writer. No matter what invention you create, some one has to sell it. Using words is a good way to do that. You can also write to influence people which, I believe, is important.
