New Media

"Our official culture is striving to force the new media to do the work of the old."

The "new media" of 1967, the time when The Medium Is the Massage was published, would be the newer electronic media: radio, television, and mainframe computers as well as things such as "movies, Telstar, flight" (p. 14).
