It reveal s that the media promotes the myth of meritocracy and egalitarianism.

Mantsios in the article "Class in America," explores the divide between classes and argues that the gap is expanding and the reason he states is that the authorities only concentrates on the two ends meaning the rich and the poor ignoring the middle class who are being affected the most.
