All media . . . traditional, social, all of it. Now, I'm a big fan of social media and the interwebs. I try to restrain myself from the overshare, but I do appreicate the voyeristic look into the lives of people I know, use to know, wish I knew.
But, I think we are headed down a slippery slope. From the vague facebook statuses that beg for attention and affirmation, to the spreading of misinformation and ignorance, to the opening up of a forum for every moron with a smart phone . . . we are a doomed people.
Want proof? It use to be that former presidents could accomplish diplomatic missions when the president couldn't be seen as traveling or taking a side in a sticky spot. Now, Dennis Rodman is our representative. Really? We are doomed. DOOMED.
