Since I don’t own a television or listen to radio I am not subject to commercials and “entertainment” except in public places where mass media is ubiquitous, however the internet is awash with the stuff.

My interest and hobby is geared to reading articles such as this that highlight the programming inherent in even reading. Careful awareness of the content read, heard AND watched on a screen, is key to not letting the “programming” invade the mind.

That’s my defense and I’m picky about my exposure to all three.

Profound all right. We are told we are the consumers when we are actually the consumed.
