The Media and the "Hive Mind"

Dan Lynch writes "It is my opinion that the men's movement should know everything it can about the media and how it works. A quote from an article I came across " If it's not on television, it never happened. Out of sight, out of mind."(May explain the voicelessness of men's issues). Now this article, about a 10 minute read, may not have identical opinions to everyone, but the framework of what the author is saying stands true. The Author shows the bass work of how television can develope mass opinions and how those opinions can translate into formalized thought control. Men feel more and more they are being reduced to a wallet or a slave in the menial sence. Their civil liberties being shortchanged. I think this article is certianly up for debate and a must read. "Jack Kerouac once noted," remarks the author, "while walking down a residential street at night, glancing into living rooms lit by the gray glare of television sets, that we have become a world of people "thinking the same thoughts at the same time."""
