John / Yoko + Marshall McLuhan interview transcript at Beatles Interviews https://mcluhangalaxy.wordpress.com/2017/09/25/when-john-lennon-yoko-ono-met-marshall-mcluhan-1969/ On a snowy day in Toronto in December 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono sat down with renowned Canadian media theorist Marshall McLuhan to chat about their ‘War is Over!’ billboard campaign, which had seen huge proclamations of “War is over! If you want it. Happy Christmas from John & Yoko”erected in 12 different countries. While John and Ono were undoubtably one of the most talked about pop culture figures of the time, McLuhan was no stranger to the spotlight either. He is known for coining the expression “the medium is the message” and for predicting the internet almost 30 years before it was invented.
