Description
Bourdieu's "On Television" explores how television shapes journalism and the world of ideas. In this work, he examines the mechanisms of manipulation and censorship that influence what appears on screen.
The author reveals how the ratings game has transformed journalism and politics, extending its impact into fields such as law, science, art, and philosophy. Bourdieu's analysis offers a blueprint for countering these effects.
