In his final monologue, Howard Beale delivers a scathing critique of modern society’s passivity and the overpowering influence of media and corporations. His intent is to shake people awake from their indifference, urging them to recognize how television—and by extension, corporate-controlled media—distorts reality, dulls critical thought, and distracts from urgent issues. Beale implores the audience to break free from this mental complacency, calling for a rediscovery of individual and collective agency, so society can reclaim its humanity in a world increasingly driven by profit and manipulation.
This monologue is a wake-up call for listeners to move beyond passive consumption and take responsibility for their own perceptions and actions in the world.
Enjoy!
