Turn off your tv
Adbuster’s campaign this week challenges people to turn off their tvs. The biggest problem is that we use television to find out about what is going on a lot of the time. Only one news organization, CNN, has been willing to air these “uncommercials“. I especially recommend watching the “uncommercial” with children in it. The looks on their faces show that there is no mental challenge or active processing going on. From my experience people definitely don’t look like that when they are reading a book or interacting with other people.
