…men' hitting middle age in past years typically lived in a warm bath of feel good US TV BS. In our current era television and social media are very abrasive and aggressive. Matt Taibbi's forthcoming book Hate Inc is very good on this. I wonder whether the corrosive effective of this is an element in the mass depression claimed by the Economist.

…the media for this. And I don’t just mean during this pandemic, but for the past couple decades (and especially from 2015 onward.) Dividing the audience is good for business. I really enjoyed the book Hate Inc by Matt Taibbi that examines this phenomenon.
You’re responding to the narrative the media is pushing down your throat. My advice? Read less news and work on something positive. Be the change you want to see. I recommend the book Hate Inc by Matt Taibbi for a nice exploration of how the media profits from dividing us. Also, obligatory Aaron Swartz: http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/hatethenews
…companies — the very same entities that are fomenting the division that necessitates the advertising in the first place. It’s a rage cycle. As a starting point I would recommend reading Matt Taibbi’s Hate Inc and subscribing to Glenn Greenwald’s substack. They’re two of the only left-of-center commentators who have not lost their integrity over the past five years, and their ideas are worth listening to.

……过去步入中年的男人们，通常都沉浸在能让人感觉良好的美国电视垃圾内容温床里。而在我们这个时代，电视和社交媒体都极具攻击性和火药味。马特·泰比即将出版的新书《仇恨有限公司》在这点上分析得非常透彻。我好奇这种侵蚀效应是不是《经济学人》所说的群体性抑郁的诱因之一。克里斯·赫奇斯和泰比在 RT 上做过探讨：https://youtu.be/8_vla4l-AX8

……怪罪媒体。我指的不仅仅是这次疫情期间，而是过去这二三十年（尤其是2015年以后）。制造受众撕裂对生意来说太赚了。我很喜欢马特·泰比剖析这种现象的《仇恨有限公司》这本书。

你这完全是被媒体硬塞给你的叙事牵着鼻子走。我的建议？少看新闻，做点积极的事情。成为你想在世界上看到的改变。我推荐读读马特·泰比的《仇恨有限公司》，它很好地探讨了媒体是如何靠撕裂我们来牟利的。另外，照例附上亚伦·斯沃茨的博文：http://www.aaronsw.com/weblog/hatethenews

……那些大公司——正是这些实体在煽动撕裂，反过来又让广告投放变得必不可少。这就是个愤怒循环。作为入门，我建议读读马特·泰比的《仇恨有限公司》，并订阅格伦·格林沃尔德的 Substack。他们是过去五年来极少数没有丧失操守的中左翼评论员，他们的观点很值得一听。

> 马特·泰比（和其他人）把它比作职业摔角。就是打假赛（Kayfabe）。确实，《仇恨有限公司》是本绝世好书，我两年里听了3遍。世界各地发生的大多数政治闹剧竟然和书里描写的如出一辙，想想真是不寒而栗。这不仅仅是美国的问题，尽管它的……

你或许可以考虑把马特·泰比的《仇恨有限公司：当今媒体为何让我们彼此憎恨》加进你的书单。它的主题和你列出的很多书类似，而且讨论了更近期的议题，比如对伊拉克战争的报道以及……
