In this episode, GHS Education Coordinator Lisa Landers and Dr. Stan Deaton, the Dr. Elaine B. Andrews Distinguished Historian at GHS, discuss how television and other sources of media have changed the American media landscape over time. They also cover the impact of mass media on events of the Cold War and how new technologies developed during the time period have made it possible for more information to be shared at faster rates, requiring audiences to have greater critical-thinking, problem-solving, and media-literacy skills.
