electromagnetism - Does light interact with electric fields?


We know that light is an electromagnetic wave and it does interact with charges.


It contains magnetic field and electric field oscillating perpendicularly but when we apply an electric or magnetic field in any direction to the wave the applied electric field or magnetic field vector doesn't alter the magnetic or electric field in the electro magnetic wave (according to vector addition rule)....why?
