"Media is not the key. In fact, we can't change the media/entertainment world, but change perception of things in our society."

Where do you think "perception of things in our society" comes from?

We need to get people to stop believing that 'tv == realism.' Watching "Law & Order" doesn't make you a legal expert. Watching "The Sopranos" doesn't mean that you know all about the mob. There are people that believe this though. Statements like, "the revolution will not be televised" are a reflection of this tendency in our society.
