What does it mean to be a "citizen" today, in an age of unbridled consumerism, terrorism, militarism, and multinationalism? This book provides the answer to this question. It looks at media coverage of September 11th and the Iraq invasion as well as "infotainment" to see how US TV is serving its citizens as part of "the global commodity chain".
