There's one huge problem with the MEF, I looked it up their DVDs are $275 each! I'm dead serious, if the DVDs were reasonably priced it would be a lot easier to get the important messages of these DVDs out. That is a big problem!

@MrRiseAboveitall The prices you saw are costs for a college/university. MEF offers discounted prices for high schools, nonprofits, community colleges, public libraries, educators purchasing

out of their own budgets, & for home-use. If purchasing for home-use, you may purchase select films at discounted prices which are $20 and up. Films purchased at this licensing level may be viewed in home settings only & are not licensed for public/classroom use. To purchase, please call 1.800.897.0089.

I'm so happy that MEF, FSTV, and LinkTV is around to expose all of the false cultural icons and the like.

Thanks for posting this. I love MEF and Sut Jhally!

I just wish some of the old catalog (e.g., "Advertising and the End of the World"!!!) was available online somewhere.
