Week II: Monday

One definition of culture included the word "organic" - something that arises without external interference; no "pesticides" are added - it arises naturally. I don't believe culture is organic. Having worked in broadcasting, I've seen how decisions are made. Manipulation happens. I realize media is only one element of "culture," but it is always assuming a larger role. I'm not claiming expert status but firmly believe media brings a sizeable application of "pesticides."
