Moyers & Company. Where Do Movies End and Politics Begin?
Description
How does pop culture not only reflect but influence political culture? In this edition of Moyers & Company, historian and culture critic Neal Gabler joins Bill Moyers to discuss how representations of heroism in movies shape our expectations of a U.S. president, and how our real-world candidates are packaged into superficial, two-dimensional personas designed to appeal to both the electorate and the media. And, in a new broadcast essay, Moyers weighs the value of personal liberty versus the greater public welfare. Is it fair for parents to opt out of vaccinations for their children on the basis of religion or philosophy - and how many pay the price for that decision?
