Written to help readers gain self awareness, Screens' Puppets seeks to pull back the curtain of media creators workshops and offer avenues to think critically about how media consumption affects our lives.
A certified expert in mass media - and in pursuit of more training on the subject - author Mohammed Khushaim has worked diligently to understand how and why media affects people so deeply. In their newest publication, Screens' Puppets, Khushaim asks questions like:What are the effects of media consumption?
To what extent does the media change us?
Are those effects happening randomly or according to a clear agenda?
What are the goals of these effects, and who set up those goals?
Who determines the social values that all societies must accept?
As societies worldwide, are we moving toward a hill or to a massive hole?
Filled with essays and thesis statements that answer the questions above, Screens' Puppets provides readers with a thought-provoking journey to understand the strategies used by content creators and media outlets. These strategies - which seek to mold the preferences, beliefs, and identities of those who consume the media - threaten true individuality and free will.
Khushaim promises readers will gain the self-awareness and critical thinking they need to break free from the manipulation of media by presenting a deeper understanding of media's impact on their lives.
It's time to cut the strings and reclaim your freedom.
