Paul Levinson talks about Neil Postman and Marshall McLuhan
I talk about Neil Postman shortly after his death in October 2003, at a New York State Communication Association (NYSCA) memorial in his honor in the Catskills. I recount how I first met Marshall McLuhan in 1977, when Postman asked me as his doctoral student at New York University to write an Introduction for McLuhan's "Laws of the Media" (Tetrad) essay in et cetera Magazine. Also mentioned in my talk - Lance Strate, Thom Gencarelli, and Molly Vozick-Levinson. (Thanks to Claude Almansi for the caption transcript.)
