Media Burn

There are many ways to interpret a film like "Media Burn". It could be seen as bashing modern television and entertainment; mainly what most of America wants to see on the television to keep their attention. In that respect it could also be the fact that so many Americans care what can keep their attention on the television that they are speaking up about. More specifically the fact that television wastes life away. Instead of perhaps doing something creative, like say, making your own film, you sit and watch the television and consume other peoples creativity. They could have also done it for the fact that driving a car through a wall of burning televisions would be amazing, but I doubt that. I think that it is a combination of my first two ideas and more so just a strike against mass media in general. Based on how much of an American's life revolves around the television in some way, it is right to speak up against it. I don't think the car was necessarily important to the process of destroying the televisions, but it is the easiest and it gets the point across. What they seem to be getting at is that America needs to get out of the television trance.
