Book: Mediated: How The Media Shapes Your World And The Way You Live In It From Princess Diana's funeral to the prospect of mass terror, from oral sex in the Oval Office to cowboy politics in distant lands, "Mediated" takes readers on an original and astonishing tour of every department of our media-saturated society.
In this utterly original look at our modern "culture of performance," de Zengotita shows how media are creating self-reflective environments, custom made for each of us. From Princess Diana's funeral to the prospect of mass terror, from oral sex in the Oval Office to cowboy politics in distant lands, from high school cliques to marital therapy, from blogs to reality TV to the Weather Channel, "Mediated" takes us on an original and astonishing tour of every department of our media-saturated society. The implications are personal and far-reaching at the same time.
