Ohhhh Noam, ever thine, ever mine, ever ours!...giggle. I can't help it; I crush on him.
I was talking to a fellow soon-to-be social teacher and she hadn't heard of Manufacturing Consent. I'm in my mid-thirties so I realized that some of the twenty-somethings may not know it. I watched it in my teens. It changed my life. Not only did it make me look at the media more critically but Noam Chomsky modeled the type of person I want to be (and type of man I want to be with...giggle). He showed me how to seek out the truth, not pick up a newspaper but cross-examine numerous and pair that with my intellect, reason, and commonsense. Thank god for noam and others that seek to illuminate the truth.
