My topic today is "The Big Machine called Popular Culture and how it's in control of your attitudes."
Ha, ha, you say. I'm smarter than that. I am not being controlled.
Well, I say, you definitely are. And I'll concede that it's hard not to be. On a daily basis we are all bombarded by media messages. And the sources of those messages generally come from a handful of big guys at the top of the communication chain who are deciding for you what you should be thinking and buying.
