Earlier this year NPR’s On the Media host Brook Gladstone released “The Influencing Machine”, a history of media and journalism illustrated by Josh Nuefeld.
Actually, “illustrated” leaves us descriptively short: it’s a comic book romp that traces modern journalism back some 2,000 years to the shysters of yesteryear.
Here, Gladstone tackles the idea that the media is manipulating us.
Not true, she says, instead, media culture is a hall of mirrors. One where we just don’t really like the reflection that is us.
