What the mass media offers is not popular art, but entertainment which is intended to be consumed like food, forgotten, and replaced by a new dish.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Any form of media is an opportunity to be a mirror and reflection of what we are experiencing more in the details of our life. What makes it fun and unique in a lot of ways is how that journey is changing just by the mere fact of the current time.
Film and TV are the most popular mediums in America. Literature and poetry are possibly the most under-recognized art forms.
I think with the whole new Internet media, I'm not necessarily Internet savvy, but I just feel that the way that art in general will be presented to the public is going to be different.
The one thing with the established and traditional media industries is that whenever something new comes along, they don't know what to make of it, and the natural reaction is to fight it or push back.
Television news is now entertainment, and the stories are being written by the people that have a special interest in them.
Art cannot be looked at as an elite, sacred event anymore. It has to be embraced as an accessible, popular form, which is what I believe theater is at its roots.
Art is more engaging that propaganda.
It's disappointing to see films become pure entertainment, so that it's not an art form.
I think media people know we're good at making content and how we can be smart about how to consume it. It's always a balance.
Entertainment is in art like color in pictures.
