  1. Nitesh Prasad Shail –

    Interesting perspective, but McChesney can get a bit preachy. Still, worth a read for media studies students. Some points resonated with me strongly.

  2. Moksh Goel –

    Gets bogged down in the details at times. Important subject matter, but could be more accessible. It was still helpful for my research.

  3. Kartik Sood –

    Uneven in its arguments. Some chapters were fantastic, others less so. Overall, a worthwhile, if slightly frustrating, read. I would recommend.

  4. Shiv Sharma –

    Opened my eyes to the digital divide and its implications. Highly recommend this book! I’m going to keep this on my shelf to reread.

  6. Naga Venkata Sri Sai Rohith Gunupati –

    Good starting point for media studies, but not for casual reading. Some arguments felt repetitive. I feel like this could have been shorter.

    Excellent analysis of the relationship between technology and society. This book is a powerful and timely contribution to the field.

    A must-read for anyone concerned about the future of media. McChesney’s analysis is spot-on. I really appreciate the historical context given.

    Important insights on media ownership. This is required reading if you want to know more about censorship in the media.

    McChesney presents a compelling case, but the solutions felt a little idealistic. I still enjoyed the book and will recommend it though.
