Edmund Carpenter, "The New Languages"

clack 30, Edmund Carpenter, "The New Languages" pp. 255-261 This piece was published in 1960, just as TV was taking over, and was written by an early collaborator of Marshall McLuhan. Q3. What are television's similarities with and differences from the "languages" of other modern mass media of the time? What does Carpenter mean in saying that certain ideas can be communicated best through different types of media, and what kinds of ideas does he say are most effective via TV? In what ways can the introduction of a new medium serve to stimulate and "free" older media?
