Co-produced by Necessary Illusions Productions Inc. and the NFB with the financial assistance of Telefilm Canada and in association with Vision/TV Canada, HOS Holland, YLE-TV2 Finland, NRK Norway and SBS Australia.

This video focuses primarily on the implications of the structure and format of television, especially the consequences of concision, and how these factors can shape the messages of the medium. In addition, other issues, such as how democracies handle dissenters, and how the mainstream media have treated the challenges of Chomsky's media critiques are explored. The media construct reality, and in the conclusion we see the author participating in that very process.
