the assumption (that Klosterman makes) that people (basically all people who have and watch TV, which means EVERYONE, at least insofar as those people who live in countries that allow the free viewing (not free as in money, but free as in choice) live their real lives in accordance with the fake lives they see in media, and especially the fake lives in media (TV, film) that we, the viewers, assume can be real, all while knowing they are fake. This paper can discuss these ideas in whatever way you see fit. No rules.
