El desarrollo de la capacidad crítica es uno de los objetivos más importantes de la educación, pero a veces es difícil conseguirlo en una sociedad que consume tanta basura y que se cree todo lo que lee o escucha por los medios de comunicación.

Chomsky reveals how the press in America is complicit with corporate interests, and how our government is also ruled by such interests- hardly a 'free' situation. One major topic of the book is documentation of U.S. terror abroad and the absence of U.S. media coverage of same. An enlightening book, and a good one to cross-reference with any of Arundhati Roy's non-fiction work, as well as Christopher Hitchens' "The Trial of Henry Kissinger," and of course, Howard Zinn's "A People's History of the United States."

Far from being "anti-American," this book is truly a look at just how anti-American jingoism and corporate capitalism can be. I would say this book is "anti-American foreign policy and hegemony," which, when faced with the facts of our actions abroad, any person with a conscience (and any person who believes in democracy) should be.
