DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Rainer Werner Fassbinder Germany

His films obsessively dissect media manipulation, consumer culture, and television's role in shaping desire and identity within capitalist societies.

 Sidney Lumet United States

He created prescient critiques of media power and institutional corruption, most notably in 'Network' which exposed television's sensationalism and moral bankruptcy.
