Media Dictatorship: How Schools and Educators Can Defend Freedom of
Speech outlines how the American media amasses enormous power and
uses it to control every aspect of the people's lives-including
schools, elections, science, and freedom of thought. Even churches,
supposedly answerable to God only, are now being influenced and
controlled by media. This book discusses the devastating
consequences of such control on democracy and our civilization, and
then offers suggestions on what can be done to identify media
propaganda and defend freedom of speech. The school system has
always been the first line of defense for patriotism and democracy.
It is important for teachers to understand the consequences of a
powerful media that does not tolerate diversity of thought. This
book will encourage teachers to cultivate independence of thought
among students. School administrators, too, have a responsibility
to ensure that school campuses are sanctuaries of freedom of
thought where leaders of tomorrow are taught to be tolerant of
opposing views. In the larger public, outside the school campus,
Media Dictatorship will spur a robust debate about the kind of
media that can help nurture our democracy and civilization.
