Answer:

C. Because TV is so embedded in the culture that its effects are invisible

Explanation:

Postman refers to French literary theorist Roland Barthes. He argues that “TV has accomplished the status of 'myth'". The point here is to understand what does “myth” mean to Barthes. Postman himself later on explains:  “a myth is a way of thinking so deeply embedded in our consciousness that it is invisible”.

Neko [114]

Answer:

(a.)The writers whom Barry Lopez mentioned in the first paragraph have in common is the kind of writing they do, recently referred to as <em>"nature or landscape writing".</em> It is a type of writing that takes into account the impact that nature and place have on culture.

(b). By mentioning a range of old and new writers, Barry Lopez tried to make a point that although people believed the type of nature writing is new, there have been several and widely known nature writers in the past in American Literature who have written about impact of nature and place on culture, or nature/landscape writing. He tried to emphasize that  the old names would readily come to mind before remembering the new writers on the block.
