indeed, which is why i prefer to recommend Inventing Reality by Michael Parenti.

Also Chomsky was an establishment scholar, his early rise was propped up by military funds and the such meanwhile Parenti stood up by his principles and was never allowed in academia.

Also afaik most of the book was written by Edward S. Herman, who nobody remembers because he wasn’t a sellout and didn’t make a career as the face of controlled opposition.

Ok but he was right about powerful people controlling the media.
