McLuhan Assignment 1



For my medium I decided to choose the television. The television has opened up the whole world to the casual population. All of the images in this television represent something important that happened due to the television. The television brought the world together. Everyone was able to view the events of September 11th. When Georgia Bush addressed the nation after the attacks it brought the people of the United States together. The television brought the Vietnam War into the homes of the American people, which is why many of the people were against the war, because they could now see how awful war was. Without the television we would not feel as connected as we are and that is why the television is an important medium.
