TV's triumphant overclass
Television continues to grow positively filthy with the filthy rich. And where is the middle class? Demeaning itself for money on reality and game shows, of course
By Heather Havrilesky [2007-09-10]

  • money in the media

    is the message really that we should all find it very important to be so very rich and so very pretty?

    in a way, i think that these shows accomplish the opposite.

    the message that i see when i see shows featuring beautiful, vapid, moneyed people: class mobility doesn't work. those who reach for the sky will fall flat on their asses. don't try to be in a position of power, because you'll come to regret it.
