What I watched this weekend

[Gooch]

David Barsamian does incredible interviews with Chomsky. He has a few books of just interviews that are really good. One that comes to mind is: Keeping the Rabble in Mind.

There are three books, which can be purchased as a set, which are basically Barsamian interviews:

1. What Uncle Sam Really Wants
2. The Prosperous Few and the Restless Many
3. Secrets, Lies and Democracy


What Uncle Same Really Wants is a great primer to Chomsky







“[The corporate mass-media] serve to divert the unwashed masses and reinforce the basic social values: passivity, submissiveness to authority, the overriding virtue of greed and personal gain, lack of concern for others, fear of real or imagined enemies, etc.

“The goal is to keep the bewildered herd bewildered. It’s unnecessary for them to trouble themselves with what’s happening in the world. In fact, it’s undesirable — if they see too much of reality they may set themselves to change it.”

— Noam Chomsky
