Initially driven by p0rn lolol (same with the internet) Increase choice and control (control when and what you watch) 500 channels, netflix, anywhere tv (can watch things on tablets, phones, etc. ) Vietnam war massive protest vs no protest for iraq war. First tv war; broadcasted almost daily, body counts (images of body bags loading into. Draft army vs volunteer army (vietnam = draft) Tearing down of the wall (context west germany, east germany, berlin = capital in the east so it had to be divided into west and east berlin) Did not use power, did not want the same outcome of tiananmen square. Black people in paris, bad living and jobs (not in the centre of paris, in the suburbs) Use of cell phones for meeting for riots, social media to spread riots, etc.
