Abstract | Our use of the electronic media to conduct serious discourse raises the question of whether "we are amusing ourselves to death," as Neil Postman argued. The approach known as "media ecology," the study of media as environments, which emphasizes the need to understand context and find balance, provides a basis for the analysis and critique of contemporary culture. The American republic was born out of the typographic media environment, while our current electronic media environment, with its emphasis on images, information, and immediacy, has had many negative effects on American politics, journalism, religious experience, and education.
