Description
Neil Postman, an author and academic, and Steve Powers, a television journalist, reveal the difference between what TV news says it is presenting and what it actually delivers, entertainment fodder versus genuine news. They explain why TV news has become a “cash cow,” pointing to the symbiotic relationship between TV news and advertising. They also stress that anyone who relies exclusively on television for his or her knowledge of the world is making a serious mistake.
