Howard beale- The Mad Prophet of the Airwaves

Now, you need to think about what message Howard Beale (the speaker) is trying to tell. It's fairly obvious. What message did you take away from this?

In this speech tube describe television.Howard beals tell us nobody wants to read newspaper and book they just took information by television; however, people get untruth infoarmation by television.It gives you illusion.it will tell you everything that you want to listen. You won't be aware about the truth, so he said you should turn off the television.

2.Is this message more or less relevant today than 30 years ago when this movie came out?

I think this massage is more relevant to taday society rather than 30 year's ago. Because television is very popular. Now you can see it in every house.people just see television and get news and information.they want to spend more time to watch tv than reading newspaper.Because they want to do another work while watching television.

3.Is this a message for American audiences only, or is it a message that could be spread in your home country? Why or why not?

This massage is not for only Americans,because television is famous in all of the world.Every country people likes to watch television.people think now they have technology to get information and they don't like to read newspaper,so this message is for every country in the world.

4.Does this make you want to see the movie, or does it just sound like a boring old man trying to tell everyone how to live their life?

I will like to see these type of movie because it teels us about the truth whats happening in our daily life. people know about their fault but they are continuing.These type of movie tell us about the truth of life.

I'm glad that you got the message from the movie. This was a very important movie in the history of American cinema, for the lessons that you learned from it.
