I just wanna say: I still watch TV; I still read some magazines and the occasional newspaper; I just don't go to them for NEWS. News now moves too fast for dead trees, and TV is only good for visual spectacle. Social media is the most immediate, TV gets there eventually (usually for the aftermath), and everybody else is for analysis, if I want any.
