McCain Radio Address Calls Obama a Socialist
To follow up on my last two posts, here is a premediated link to McCain's weekly radio address (posted on the web, as is customary, before the address is broadcast), in which he deploys Joe the Plumber again, using him to explicitly call Obama a socialist.
Richard Grusin is the former Director of the Center for 21st Century Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, where he is a Professor of English. He is co-author of Remediation: Understanding New Media (MIT 1999). His newest book is Premediation: Affect and Mediality in America after 9/11 (Palgrave 2010).
