Noam Chomsky et la Media
Manufacturing Consent is a documentary that examines the life and ideas of the individual: Noam Chomsky. The book expands from the ideas of Chomsky's book entitled: Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media. Chomsky's thesis is that the media is run by profit-driven institutions to churn out propaganda to the masses, so as to brainwash them into the mind set of a corporate elite. Throughout the film his message is revealed, but is portrayed as a movement towards voter organizing, almost a brain washing of sorts. Over all the movie is hard to understand and very "intellectual".
