About this ebook

Films and television shows aren’t just entertainment. They are powerful vehicles that influence social and political trends, ultimately shaping the very fabric of our culture. Because of this potential, there are various agencies which work behind the scenes in Hollywood to harness these forces for their own aims or those of their clients. 


Few people outside the industry are aware that such agencies exist and are hired by advocacy groups to lobby studios, writers, and producers in order to get their ideas inserted into plots of popular works.


These Hollywood lobbyists have been instrumental in successfully paving the path for same-sex marriage to become legal, destigmatizing abortion, encouraging mass immigration, and sounding the alarm about climate change; all under the cloak of mere “entertainment.” 


More recently we’ve seen these same powers levied against President Trump, his supporters, and used to demonize “white privilege” as an invisible enemy that’s supposedly around every corner.


Even sports and late-night comedy shows are employed for political causes, violating the once unwritten cardinal rules of their industries. In this groundbreaking work, media analyst Mark Dice details the true power of entertainment and proves how it is being used to wage a psychological war against the world.

Honestly I'd heard about (and watched it happen!) most of this over the years already, so it was a bit old-hat in my eyes. But it was thorough and has citations for every point it makes, which is handy for sure. Because I was familiar already with much of the content, it was a bit of a slow burn, but enjoyable. Much more serious than the U-tube content, that's for sure. They compliment each other quite nicely and you can see why much of it is delivered more lightly to a wider audience. Then the last two pages hit me.... like a ton of bricks!! I wish the whole book was as hard hitting as the wrap-up to it, but I was not overall disappointed in any way. This would serve as a great introduction to the changes we see in media and the forces driving those changes - for people who are just noticing how far things have gone down this path now. If you're curious about the subject, it's worth your time and after all the free content Mark has given me, I was happy to shoot him a couple bucks ! Those last two pages though. Wow. 4/5

Ties it all together. Our entire culture is completely infected with the liberal pathogen through shows, movies, MTV, news, social media. When you finally look behind the curtain it will make you want to puke.
