Not just talking horses and dancing cigarettes

Speaking of Murrow, and we were (scroll down), here's an astonishing clip from an interview he gave to WGBH in 1958. He'd be right at home with the conversations we've had in class over the past week, and of the six media models/theories we've put on the table (quick -- can you name them?), he lands pretty unambiguously in the deTocqueville/Stewart/Pimpare camp. I'd like to think this puts him in good company, but I like to think lots of things. Hat tip to Prof. Daves for the link.
