. . . that the first step in a revolution would be for people to throw away their tv's. It's a totally insidious form of communication. And I'm not just talking about the "news" aspect of it. Even the entertainment portions are filled with a subtle manipulation of the mind of the watcher as to "what is so" in the consensual reality of television land. Then the television-land percolates out into the "real" world.
I haven't watched TV in over 15 years other than for a few minutes here and there when unavoidable.
