LaReinaAllen.. Commercialization.
The more I read this book, the more I wish McKee would tell us what he thinks with conviction. "Habermas, this. Habermas that." All of the in formation he gives us is based on what someone else said. Now about 'commercialization'.. I couldn't be happier that it's a part of my life. Without reality TV, I wouldn't have anything to watch (besides Law & Order). After being in school all day doing "intellectual" stuff, I want to see other people do whatever it is that they do. I've learned a lot about what goes outside of my realm by watching this commercialized television. I'm not saying I take it as they give it. I take it as a spark for interest in something I otherwise wouldn't know existed and then I go learn about it. So, being a member of the working class AND aspiring member of the formally educated class, I will say that I can't wait for Rock of Love 2, Flavor of Love 3, Making the Band 4, and Top Model (like, 9) to come on. When I finally do cross over to the educated side, I may say "What a waste of air-time.." I doubt it though. =D
