Pretty tough though. I mean, we can't always be on our guard..
Yesterday I watched TV for the first time in a looong while. But I wasn't in the mood to look critically at what they fed me and probably swallowed a huge heap of bs.
We might be able to discern some implicit messages in media..but its so overwhelming that we can't control the flow of info entering our brain. Its beyond us, IMO...I don't think people living in modern society can really keep a "clean mind" (if there is such a thing)...even if you do develop an awareness and a critical opinion for the influence these media have on people, you can't escape it. It's everywhere.
