It's terrible, it's just a pre-show in China right now. And the most frightening thing is that you look at it, look at the future that may happen or the present that has happened, and there is nothing you can do about...

At the end of his career, a news anchor decided to tell the truth that TV did not report... When he realized that The world is a business, the audience abandoned him again because the conclusion was too pessimistic. All the details are reminiscent of the thin book "Entertainment to...

Ju Neng's lines, I like it very much. Several roaring climaxes are very good. I remembered what Woody Allen said, how to say it, TV is a big garbage...

So ironic. Unexpectedly, the ideas in the 1976 movie will appear one by one on today's TV and on the Internet. For ratings and click-through rates, the media use various tricks. But no matter what kind of moth it is, there will always be a group of ignorant and mindless people who...

After watching this film for more than two months, one day I saw a post about the past of Fei Fei and Zheng Shaoqiu. The post said that Fei Fei asked Zheng Shaoqiu whether he loved her or not on a TV show. And unify the floor type: Fei Fei is too naive. From this, I finally got a little bit of clarity about this film - in the film Michael said to Diana, you are a generation raised by TV, you don't know what real life...

Howard Beale: We'll tell you anything you want to hear, we lie like hell.

Howard Beale: [arms outstretched to the heavens] Edward George Ruddy died today! Edward George Ruddy was the Chairman of the Board of the Union Broadcasting Systems, and he died at eleven o'clock this morning of a heart condition, and woe is us! We're in a lot of trouble!
Howard Beale: [calmly strolling toward the audience] So. A rich little man with white hair died. What has that got to do with the price of rice, right? And *why* is that woe to us? Because you people, and sixty-two million other Americans, are listening to me right now. Because less than three percent of you people read books! Because less than fifteen percent of you read newspapers! Because the only truth you know is what you get over this tube. Right now, there is a whole, an entire generation that never knew anything that didn't come out of this tube! This tube is the Gospel, the ultimate revelation. This tube can make or break presidents, popes, prime ministers... This tube is the most awesome God-damned force in the whole godless world, and woe is us if it ever falls in to the hands of the wrong people, and that's why woe is us that Edward George Ruddy died. Because this company is now in the hands of CCA - the Communication Corporation of America. There's a new Chairman of the Board, a man called Frank Hackett, sitting in Mr. Ruddy's office on the twentieth floor. And when the twelfth largest company in the world controls the most awesome God-damned propoganda force in the whole godless world, who knows what shit will be peddled for truth on this network?
Howard Beale: [ascending the stage] So, you listen to me. Listen to me: Television is not the truth! Television is a God-damned amusement park! Television is a circus, a carnival, a traveling troupe of acrobats, storytellers, dancers, singers, jugglers, side-show freaks, lion tamers, and football players. We're in the boredom-killing business! So if you want the truth... Go to God! Go to your gurus! Go to yourselves! Because that's the only place you're ever going to find any real truth.
