Avram Noam Chomsky (/ˈnoʊm ˈtʃɒmski/; born December 7, 1928) is an American linguist, philosopher, cognitive scientist, historian, logician, social critic, and political activist. Sometimes described as "the father of modern linguistics," Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy, and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He has spent most of his career at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he is Institute Professor Emeritus, and is the author of over 100 books, primarily on politics and linguistics. Ideologically, he aligns with anarcho-syndicalism and libertarian socialism.
Born to a middle-class Ashkenazi Jewish family in Philadelphia, Chomsky developed an early interest in anarchism from alternative bookstores in New York City. At the age of sixteen he began studies at the University of Pennsylvania, taking courses in linguistics, mathematics, and philosophy. He married fellow linguist Carol Schatz in 1949. From 1951 to 1955 he was appointed to Harvard University's Society of Fellows, where he developed the theory of transformational grammar for which he was awarded his doctorate in 1955. That year he began teaching at MIT, in 1957 emerging as a significant figure in the field of linguistics for his landmark work Syntactic Structures, which laid the basis for the scientific study of language, while from 1958 to 1959 he was a National Science Foundation fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study. He is credited as the creator or co-creator of the universal grammar theory, the generative grammar theory, the Chomsky hierarchy, and the minimalist program. Chomsky also played a pivotal role in the decline of behaviorism, being particularly critical of the work of B. F. Skinner.

Canadian filmmaker Peter Wintonick, whose films include 'China Heavyweight' and 'Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media', was invited to Adelaide, South Australia as the 7th 'Thinker in Residence' in 2005. His task was to investigate the future of the State's screen media in the digital age, to write up a report with his recommendations and to give a speech at the Adelaide Town Hall. This was a time when high speed broadband was only just beginning to be rolled out, You Tube was very new and mobile phones were meant for talk and text. Myself and another young filmmaker were Peter's researchers and interns for four months. We pitched the idea of creating video documentation of Peter's residency to upload to the web. This was a challenging new concept for the government's Thinke...

A documentary film that explores the political life and ideas of Noam Chomsky, a linguist, intellectual, and political activist. Created by two Canadian filmmakers, Mark Achbar and Peter Wintonick, it expands on the ideas of Chomsky's earlier book, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media, which he co-wrote with Edward S. Herman. The film presents and illustrates Chomsky's and Herman's thesis that corporate media, as profit-driven institutions, tend to serve and further the agendas of the interests of dominant, elite groups in the society. A centerpiece of the film is a long examination of the history of The New York Times' coverage of the Indonesian occupation of East Timor, which Chomsky says exemplifies the media's unwillingness to criticize an ally of the elite.

Ein Film von Mark Achbar und Peter Wintonick Unterhaltsam, provokativ und anschaulich nähert sich der Film dem Werk und Leben des renommierten Linguisten, Intellektuellen und politischen Aktivisten Noam Chomsky. In einer Collage aus alten und neuen Interviews, Archivmaterialien und biografischen Elementen beleuchtet er Chomskys kritische Analyse der Massenmedien -- vor allem in demokratischen Gesellschaften, in denen die Bevölkerung nicht durch Gewalt diszipliniert wird, sondern subtileren Formen ideologischer Kontrolle ausgesetzt ist. Das zweiteilige Mammutwerk kommt trotz seiner Länge leichtfüßig daher. Die Regisseure Achbar und Wintonick regen ihre Zuschauer an, die Funktionsweisen des Films selbst zu hinterfragen, so wie Chomsky seine Zuhörer auffordert und ermutigt, sich aus dem Net...

Kanadský dokument představuje názory profesora lingvistiky na MIT a vlivného intelektuála Noama Chomského na roli médií v demokratických zemích, zejména pak v USA. Chomsky ve filmu, složeném zejména ze sestříhaných záběrů z jeho přednášek, rozhovorů a debat, argumentuje, že masová média ve Spojených státech prosazují agendu vládnoucích politických a podnikatelských elit, místo objektivního informování.
