CAUTION: This Will Harm You.

I'm only about 8 min in and this is horrifying me. Not because its truth, but because this is a text book example of Scape goating and pushing the blame away from ourselves, and onto a nameless enemy.
How a scape goat works.
Step 1 scare the audience ( reads from Collations)
Step 2 Name the scape goat ( the media)
Step 3 convince the audience that all our problems are from the goat ( Its the media's fault you are immoral)
Step 4 use a misquoted or out of context source to bring relevence to the stance. ( some unnamed, unbeliever also thinks the media is bad)
Step 5 Convince the audience that the goat needs to be done away with. ( Do away with all media)
He also scares his audience by stating that teens are at danger ( scare tactic), He removed the responsibility from the parent.
In short, its not our fault that we are bad, its TV.

I managed to listen to about half the cast before I had to go to work earlier.ronniechoate34 said:
The main problem I have with his stance is that he is taking responsibility off the individual, made massive generalization about children, ignored worse times in history, and blamed the media for changing our culture.
The media isn't this faceless evil organization, it us. They play what we want. Its that simple. Media didn't make us immoral, we are immoral, and it shows through our media.
This needs to be an individual journey where we remove our own evils, not what we think is evil around us. ;)
