Noam Chomsky’s backpocket classic on wartime propaganda and opinion control begins by asserting two models of democracy—one in which the public actively participates, and one in which the public is manipulated and controlled. According to Chomsky, "propaganda is to democracy as the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state," and the mass media is the primary vehicle for delivering propaganda in the United States. From an examination of how Woodrow Wilson’s Creel Commission "succeeded, within six months, in turning a pacifist population into a hysterical, war-mongering population," to Bush Sr.'s war on Iraq, Chomsky examines how the mass media and public relations industries have been used as propaganda to generate public support for going to war. Chomsky further touches on how the modern public relations industry has been influenced by Walter Lippmann’s theory of "spectator democracy," in which the public is seen as a "bewildered herd" that needs to be directed, not empowered; and how the public relations industry in the United States focuses on "controlling the public mind," and not on informing it. Media Control is an invaluable primer on the secret workings of disinformation in democratic societies.

用户评价
指出美國政府如何在伊拉克戰爭中利用媒體控制和製造民意，不少觀點值得一讀，犀利流暢的論辯基於對歷史、政治和傳播學機制的透徹了解，可惜更像是演講稿，嚴謹不足。
评分一本半过时的书。过时之处在于书中提到社会权力掌控者对传媒系统的操纵使大部分非掌权者无法发声来相互达成共识，只能被迫选择媒体提供的语焉不详的共识而不能团结起来改变社会，的局面已经被互联网的存在打破了。但互联网创造的结社自由的条件并未带来作者承诺的变革，反而造成了民间立场的无限细分，非掌权者一盘散沙的特征不得不让人质疑往日民间因为从未被公开讨论而模糊的共识即使在传统媒体时代被公开，是否真能给社会带来任何区别。本书现世意义在于书中所提的口号般无内核无意义的共识仍常见于中西方政治，民众应当对任何不假思索就能表态立场的议题保持警惕，因为它们通常都掩盖了更多对掌权者不利的立场。一个最近的例子便是不用动脑地表态“WH加油”和注意到那些“追责官员”的声音的区别。此外，媒体对历史的重新解读也应被民众所警惕。
评分精英主义的媒体垄断
评分对抗洗脑
评分句句是人话，句句是实话！
