Smoke and Mirrors: Violence, Television, and Other American Cultures

Instead of making a scapegoat of television as the cause of crime on the streets of the USA, stupidity in its schools, and spectacle rather than substance in its government, this challenge to conventional ideas about television sees inside the box an echo chamber and a feedback loop; a medium neither wholly innocent of, nor entirely responsible for, the disorder it brings to people's homes.
