Another Story Book Launch of Media Mediocrity, 16 April 2011
Another Story Bookshop is having an interesting book launch/discussion at their store:
BOOK LAUNCH – MEDIA MEDIOCRITY: HOW THE TELEVISION MAKES US STOOPID!
April 16, 2011; 4-6PM
Another Story Bookshop; 315 Roncesvalles Ave
Meteorologist, TV/film producer, university lecturer, writer, broadcaster
and general media expert, Richard Zurawski is coming to the store to lead a
discussion about how the media is failing to keep us informed.
Why do so many people still deny the "hypothesis" of global climate change?
All but a few rogue scientists agree that we have a crisis on our hands, but
all we get from TV and news media are debates in the form of sound bites...
Why are we denying the voices of those experts in favor of politicians and
pundits?
So get up off the couch and let's have a discussion (with an expert) face to
face!
