Description:
In this classic collection of essays, Arlen misses nothing: He discusses how we watch the violence on TV news, unmoved, while eating breakfast and screaming at family members over trivialities; whether the television news communicates information responsibly; and how hidden values are imparted to children by Sesame Street while the program ostensibly teaches them the alphabet.
