Robert MacNeil
“Television is the soma of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World.”
Robert MacNeil

Paul Thomas Anderson
“Kill your television!”
Paul Thomas Anderson, Magnolia: The Shooting Script

John Twelve Hawks
“I spent my time drinking and staring at a television in the airport bar. More death and destruction. Crime. Pollution. All the news stories were telling me to be frightened. All the commercials were telling me to buy things I didn´t need. The message was that people could only be passive victims or consumers.”
John Twelve Hawks, The Traveler

Michael Parenti

The glittering mansion overlooks a vast sprawl of shanty towns, wherein a desperate, demoralized humanity is kept in line with drugs, television, and armed force.”
Michael Parenti, Against Empire

“...and he just sat back and stared at the tube, almost interested in what was happening, trying to find the ability to believe in that lie so he could believe the one within.”
Hubert Selby Jr., Requiem for a Dream
