...what The Control Voice (Vic Perrin) said at the introduction of nearly every episode was...

"There is nothing wrong with your television set. Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are controlling transmission. If we wish to make it louder, we will bring up the volume. If we wish to make it softer, we will tune it to a whisper. We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear."

Which, to a large degree, is what the media megacorporations are doing. And in all honesty, "controlling the message and therefore the people" is what America is about these days.
