We,as People assign acreditation of objectivity to what we watch on tv because we believe it’s impersonal; that we don’t have to confront its immediacy, because we can turn it off, disbelieve or disagree with it at any time. But when the person watching the tv is only given a skewed agenda, to pick from two colors of black or white, purposely omitting all the colors in between, then the stimulus being watched has a response of subjectivity. We’re literally being ‘led up their yellow brick road’. I call it Displacement TV.
