Wrap It Up

At the end of Postman's book he distinguishes between laughter and actually thinking it through. He says that we really dont know why we are laughing when we aren't using any thought process. In his book, he pretty much sums up all the dangers of television. Typography has decended due to television and newer technology. Take blogger for example, now were doing our homework on the internet. This is postman's argument wrapped up in a nutshell. We're going along with everything that comes our way, laughing without thinking, and all this he says comes from the creation of the television.
