In 2009, the Good News Club came to the public elementary school where journalist Katherine Stewart sent her children. The Club, which is sponsored by the Child Evangelism Fellowship, bills itself as an after-school program of "Bible study." But Stewart soon discovered that the Club's real mission is to convert children to fundamentalist Christianity and encourage them to proselytize to their "unchurched" peers, all the while promoting the natural but false impression among the children that its activities are endorsed by the school.

Excellent content but poor production
Revisado: 03-26-21
The content in this book is compelling and often frightening. But whoever was charged with producing and directing this audiobook needs to go back to school. Besides numerous mispronounced words, the butchering of former Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's name significantly detracts from the book's credibility.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 88
In the tradition of Neil Postman's masterpiece Amusing Ourselves to Death, Audience of One shows how American media have shaped American society and politics, by interweaving two crucial stories. The first story follows the evolution of television from the three-network era of the 20th century, which joined millions of Americans in a shared monoculture, into today's zillion-channel, internet-atomized universe, which sliced and diced them into fractious, alienated subcultures. The second story is a cultural critique of Donald Trump.

Good content, but not a good audiobook reader
Revisado: 10-29-19
I've long been a fan of James Poniewozik's writing. So it was with great anticipation that I ordered this Audible book. Unfortunately I had two issues. One - the frequency response of the audio was not as good as other audiobooks I've listened to of late. The reader's voice sounded somewhat veiled. And more importantly, the reader of this book himself left a lot to be desired. His rhythm and cadence was...herky jerky. There were pauses in places that didn't need them. It sounded more like a lecture than a good performer telling just you, the story.
