Mass Media, Climate Anxiety, Nihilism. Oh, my!
Manage episode 312532723 series 3237246
The media won’t speak truth to power. They can’t. The power in question is what keeps the media going.
Join us as we break this down and discuss why the mass media coverage of climate change is not the whole truth, what’s missing, and why they keep it from us.
We also talk about the result on society of this situation — climate anxiety, nihilism, and ultimately more consumerism, which is good for capitalism and the media machine.
And we don’t just leave you with that mess, we talk about what to do instead!
