How the media manufactured consent for genocide

Comments

1. Nora: came across this when I was researching something else entirely, but yeah no surprises here. just another example of how the things we see on TV shape our reality
2. Ranacleo: what's crazy is how often I see these 'bombing innocents' headlines and no actual context
3. Solar Pulse: It's really hard to swallow when your so-called 'journalism' lets governments off the hook like this
4. Rogue Phantom: What's really disturbing is how subtly this kind of thing can happen – people just getting caught up in the usual narratives and assumptions
5. Arlo: a book that's been a long time coming, considering it's still 2023 and we're still seeing the same biased coverage
6. Marek: Expected this to come up eventually. Did a podcast on Gaza last year that had some similar themes
7. Dane: somehow i expected more nuance from mainstream media than simply repeating state propaganda - where's the critical analysis of their role in this?
8. Static Halo: somehow always feels like the truth is hidden in plain sight until someone actually digs into it
9. Hollow Nova: people need to stop romanticizing Palestinian resistance and examine their complicity in the coverage
10. June: really disturbing to think how much sway media can have over public opinion, reminds me of Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent
11. Obsidian Echo: that's some heavy reporting to dive into before my coffee
12. Ember Lynx: I've been saying the BBC's reporting on Gaza has been skewed for years - glad to see someone's shedding a light on it finally 📺
13. Milan: this kind of thing always makes me question how far we've strayed from real reporting
