Review
“[A]n eye-opener. General and undergraduate collections in education, communication, and advertising.”–Choice
“This is a needed resource in any school wanting to teach an understanding of media literacy. Not only could this book be used in English or media studies, but it would also be an excellent resource for use in business classes as it studies the impact of commercials on students in middle and secondary schools. Highly recommended.”–The Book Report
“In this eye-opening work, Fox explores the impact of the commercials carried by Channel One--and, by extension, all media--on children, how children respond to these commercials, and what we can do about the situation.”–Publishers Weekly
