Synopsis
The US security state is everywhere in cultural products: in army-supported news stories, TV shows, and video games; in CIA-influenced blockbusters and comics; and in State Department ads, broadcasts, and websites. Hearts and Mines examines the US Empire's culture industry, a nexus between the US security state and US media firms, and the source of entertainment that promotes American strategic interests around the world. Building on Herbert I. Schiller's classic study of US Empire and communications, Tanner Mirrlees explores how symbiotic geopolitical and economic relationships between the government and media corporations drive US imperial culture.
