Information entropy - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos
"This haziness contrasts sharply with the vivid images supplied by television – the legalistic notes pinned by the hostage-taker on the bus door and windshield, the almost surreal efficiency of fast-food delivery to the hostages, the tireless shuttling of the man in the orange shirt, the curtained muteness of the hostages inside the bus, the searing smoke from the teargas, and the bizarre futility of the final assault. Television filled our senses with this absurdity – an overflow of images annihilating meaning."
