Description

America is suffering from an information glut, and most Americans are no longer clear about what news is worth remembering or how any of it connects to anything else. Thus Americans are rapidly becoming the least knowledgeable people in the industrial world. For anyone who wants to control--not be controlled by--the powerful influence of television, How to Watch TV News shows you how to become a discerning viewer.

Description

"This newly revised book reveals the shocking ways in which media is manipulating our worldview - and bombarding America's television viewers with misinformation."--Jacket.
