Prof Jenkins on media violence.
“A thorough account of violence in media would include: fairy tales such as Hansel and Gretel, oral epics such as Homer’s The Iliad, the staged violence of Shakespeare’s plays, fine art paintings of the Rape of the Sabine Women, and stain glass window representations of Saints being crucified or pumped full of arrows, or for that matter, talk show conversations about the causes of school shootings. If we were to start going after media violence, then, we would need to throw out much of the literary cannon and close down all of our art museums.”
Roger Ebert on the news media on Columbine.
“The message is clear to other disturbed kids around the country: If I shoot up my school, I can be famous. The TV will talk about nothing else but me. Experts will try to figure out what I was thinking. The kids and teachers at school will see they shouldn’t have messed with me. I’ll go out in a blaze of glory.”
