Al Jazeera is turning "Manufacturing Consent" into a cartoon narrated by Amy Goodman

in #documentary7 years ago (edited)

I first read Manufacturing Consent 20 years ago, and while fairly dense, it really changed the way I perceived the media at a fundamental level.

Now, thanks to the production of a new cartoon based on that epic book, the highly instructive concepts presented there will be even more accessible to those attempting to make their way through the murky depths of modern media.

Alexandra Rosenmann has already done a fantastic job of summarizing this project in her piece for Alternet: You'll Never Think About Mass Media the Same Way Again After Watching This Noam Chomsky Documentary

And if you wish to head straight to it... here's the first taste of what is going to be a monumentally useful production. Enjoy, and please share!


Should Alexandra Rosenmann wish to accept my invitation to join us here on Steemit, I will gladly pass along the rewards from this post to her.
