Although there is a growing number of people who have come to recognize that television has something
significant to do with the shaping of our society, you will find very few of them among those who run television
itself.
Both in America and Britain there is an eagerness on the part of television executives to play down the
importance of the small screen, except of course in the field of selling goods.
This desire to minimize the social impact of television is perfectly natural. If it could be proved that the
electronic box was a major factor in determining the attitudes, the values and the aspirations of a nation then
two embarrassing questions would have to be answered.
Is it right that a medium that has such influence should be primarily concerned with the provision of
entertainment and the advertising of goods? Do the men now running television have the background, the
authority, the understanding or the intelligence to do it? No matter what your answers are, you can hardly deny
that TV is helping to change society at unprecedented rate.
As for violence, many people intuitively suspect that television has something to do with it. Yet the men
running TV keep trying to convince us that we are alarmed about nothing.

talk about except that it had something to do with the miserably weary split-up and my feeling that everything
was dead. With the coming of Dean Moriarty began the part of my life you could call my life on the road. Before
that I’d often dreamed of going West to see the country, always vaguely planning and never taking off. First
reports of Dean came to me through Chad King, who’d shown me a few letters from him written in a New
Mexico reform school. I was tremendously interested in the letters because they so naively and sweetly asked
Chad to teach him all about Nietzsche and all the wonderful intellectual things that Chad knew. At one point
Carlo and I talked about the letters and wondered if we would ever meet the strange Dean Moriarty.
