Understanding derivative media is a prerequisite for meaningful reform

Evidence

My stock answer is always: what can we do? I believe this book presents the case that understanding derivative media is a crucial first step, followed by structural change at the level of media and finance reform at the very least. Taming and resisting capitalism are viable options. I think this book also suggests that the true scale of this problem, in tandem with the many other crises we face, necessitates broader, revolutionary transformation. — Andrew deWaard, Derivative Media, 468
