KUT's Views and Brews: The New Pornography of Violence
From KUT | Part of the KUT's Views and Brews Remix series | 01:01:06
Join NPR's John Burnett and Pulitzer prize winning author and screenwriter Lawrence Wright for a discussion on the increased prominence of violent imagery in contemporary warfare and what impact it's having on our collective idea of war and peace.
It's not an easy discussion, but rather a necessary one. Pornography of Violence refers to the depiction of violent behavior—as in pictures, still or video—in a sensational manner so as to arouse excitement, or a quick intense emotional reaction. During our conversation with NPR’s John Burnett and Pulitzer prize winning author and screenwriter Lawrence Wright , we discuss the exponential increase in the violent imagery of war, from Al Queda to Los Zetas, and what impact it has on our idea of war and peace.
