I felt that his observation that TV is one big commercial for the status quo was an excellent point. It's there to wipe out the idea that there can be any other way for the world to be organized. It's hard to change things if you can't imagine anything different. And his observation that none of the images leave you satisfied was also spot on. The last thing an advertiser wants is a satiated desire.

Yes - it's absurd pretensions used to have a sort of curious entertainment value? Now they have become as dull as ditch-water. Whenever they pointlessly make some war up, their crazyness becomes something to ignore at all costs, threatening as such perverted psychopathy can seem to be, they some run out of gas, and sit & cry - blaming everyone else for their own stupidity?

winter's observations about the u.s. are right-on. "boastful contempt" is a good description of the u.s. media and society.
