My favorite writer on visual culture is Dushko Petrovich. He just published a piece today that starts out being about news photos of teleprompters and ends up being a diagnosis of our current cultural moment. Do yourself a favor and read it.

The teleprompter is certainly not as important as the flag pins, the red tie, the red hats and all the other visuals of the MAGA movement. But it offers an interpretive key to the moment.
