Boring. I had to skim through a lot of it. I agree with reviewers who wondered who the audience was for this. No reason for it to be a graphic novel. The pictures added nothing, and there were way too many words, to be honest. I'm saying this as somebody who also reads a variety of things, including regular non-fiction and 1000 page fantasy epics, so it's not necessarily that I have a short attention span... It's just that I was expecting something more engaging from a graphic novel, I guess, and this was just boring. It's also by no means revolutionary, and honestly just kind of toes the mainline Democratic line pretty neatly, as far as I could tell. Maybe I'm just crazy left-leaning, I don't know. It just seemed like it was supporting the same old corrupt (sorry, they are corrupt) institutions. Definitely not a "maifesto" by any means. Yawn. Oh well.… (más)

This is the 2012 "one book one school" summer reading for incoming freshmen at Millersville University
Very thought provoking.
Could supply many opportunities for discussion in government and/or English classes

A Slim book with major implications. We should all be considering the role of reason in society today, if we really want to be engaged and understand the world in which we find ourselves. This is one where you have to really savor each idea and sentence as it comes along. I found myself rereading different passages, to really take in what she was describing, observing, and arguing for.

Brilliant look at the history of media and its relationship to audiences and government. A graphic novel to boot. Worthy of about 16 rereads.
