After reading the first couple pages of culture jam, it's read about the authors point of view. I do see his point of view that our world is turning from a natural world to a manufactured one. I aslo do believe that the media has had an influence in our lives. The media is something that constantly surrounds us. I do believe that eventually things won't "shock" us anymore. We will get used to seeing violence and sex on TV that it will no longer affect us.
The section on noise i can relate to because i often find myself doing homework with the tv on and i tend to put the voices of others in background noise. People including myself are so used to hearing noise that when there is no noise, we use the term "awkward silence". I am very interested in reading the rest of the book.
