Neil Postman

“although culture is a creation of speech, it is recreated anew by every medium of communication—from painting to hieroglyphs to the alphabet to television. Each medium, like language itself, makes possible a unique mode of discourse by providing a new orientation for thought, for expression, for sensibility.”

Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Public Discourse in the Age of Show Business
