In a media-dominated world
undermined by shocking images, death, horrifying news stories,
prefabricated beauty, gurus, money-grabbing magicians, pornography,
eroticism, emptiness, broadcasts of autopsies, disease, fear,
fantasy, dreams, luxury, discoveries, parricide, cannibalism,
televised terrorist attacks, planetary successes, unseen
achievements, fortunes amassed (or not), lotteries, triumphs and
power, television seeks out its next victim. This is the story of
someone transformed into a myth, into history.
