Your Definition
A deeper form of media alienation, specific to the era of mass broadcasting and print. It is the sense that the one‑to‑many structure of [traditional media] inherently alienates the individual. You receive messages crafted for millions, not for you; your local knowledge, your community’s stories, your own voice are [irrelevant] to the giant loudspeaker. Mass media alienation produces a feeling of powerlessness: the news shapes public opinion, yet you have no say; culture is broadcast from above, yet you cannot respond. It is the estrangement of the listener in a one‑way [conversation].
