## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Images and  news  - out of context
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in India on 21 February 2022*

I hardly read much but this was a brilliant read. I’ve purchased a kindle version for myself and two prints as gifts for friends.  A brilliant read showing how images and news is without context. The quote by CNN in this items description is ironical. They’re oblivious to the fact that 24hr news channels like CNN is what this book warns against.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    best book on television...if u watch 24 hr news or religious program ... must read
  

*by P***H on Reviewed in India on 26 August 2020*

my first advice if you are a novice reader skip part 1 and complete part 2 of the book....after that read part1.this book is filled with funny yet serious knowledge about television..or for that matter youtube videos and  channels that provide news,education,religion as entertainment...the bottom line is political discourse(discussion), educationreligion all depend on"language"..tv is totally "visual imagery" only good for entertainment...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A book way ahead of its time
  

*by S***D on Reviewed in India on 17 July 2023*

This book was first published in 1985. Through this book author wants to create awareness around media consumption  and it’s impact in moulding our culture.In today’s time when there is so much information to consume, we should focus on choosing substantial content over entertainment and this book is all about this.
