165-194

Personally, I have always viewed movies superior to television simply because you watch it on a big screen, pay a fair amount of money to watch, and normally you're not watching reruns when you go to the theater. In chapter 11, television claims superiority over film is because it can broadcast "live." This means that information about the world we inhabit can be received immediately... "television remeditates the real." (I thought i would touch on something a little different from all the other posts, however; I do love Disney World and Turner Field a LOT. After reading the section of mediated spaces, I totally view them differently now.)
