In Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda, Noam Chomsky explores how democratic societies manage and control public opinion through sophisticated media manipulation. From the historical roots of the Creel Commission to modern public relations and political disinformation, Chomsky dissects how "manufactured consent" shapes reality, marginalizes public participation, and sustains elite power. The book challenges readers to recognize propaganda’s pervasive influence and reimagine a truly informed and active democracy.
