Well, let's agree to disagree. The way I see it a medium's neutral. A medium is a tool, a vehicle, an instrument, a mechanism. eg. A guitar is the medium via which you deliver a musical message. The medium's neutral, the musical message is not. An example of medium of publication is the instrument by which a work is formatted and via which it is delivered - it isn't just the written word, but could be any kind of media. It can be print books, websites, electronic books, articles, databases, broadcast, sound recordings, ballet performance. A wall is the neutral medium via which a graffiti artist delivers a message etcetera
