Abstract:

In the treaty Principles of Economics, Carl Menger said that people are prone to let themselves misled in any field of knowledge. Keeping in mind these considerations, we ask whether media channels impose a commercial schedule that has nothing to do with people’s wants and, by this, contributing, as a matter of fact, to the design of patterns of a “counterproductive” consumption.
