Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business by Neil Postman

Ugh. Mostly negative jabbering about Television Bad and Not Educational. I will not stand for Sesame Street or SNL slander. TV rocks and the ~rotting of my brain~ is worth it.

Chapter on Televangelists and the politicians-as-celebrities and traumatic news stories-as-entertainment narratives are great and still apt.
