Abstract
Readers of ETC: A Review of General Semantics are quite familiar with Alfred Korzybski as a founder of general semantics, but many may not be aware that he also is a founder of media ecology. Korzybski's writings were first introduced to me through the writing of Neil Postman. Postman was greatly influenced by Korzybski's writing.
