Any details on Media as decisive agent of social change?

Answer 1

Huge. Most get their information on world events from one media or another, with the TV leading the way, as it speeds by at 100 deaths an hour.

Whatever indoctrination that occurs, given a right or left slant in reporting, is in addition to Madison Avenue telling us what we like, need, don't need, should get, get rid of, etc., etc., etc.

The music industry rides along with the formula music that is en vogue at any given moment and tells us who the stars are, which are rising and those fallen or about to fall.

And, we trail along, happily bleating our way through life, way to preoccupied with trying to struggle through another day, self medicated, half sedated, lacking the will or having the stamina to form rational, independent thought.

Media IS social change.

Answer 2

If you hear something over and over and over you are going to start believing it!!!!!
