Les Unmasked

Random Quote

“Advertisements and the popular press only exist in their present form because of the profit motive. “Mass” culture is not the inevitable product of “industrial” society, but the offspring of a particular form of industrialism which organizes production for profit rather than for use, which concerns itself with what will sell rather than with what is valuable.”

—Terry Eagleton
