The problem I don't hear anyone talking about is the continuing underestimation of new media, and it's effect on society. My generation can't wait to cut the cord. But we still think CNN and Fox are leading the narrative, and they still think they are leading the narrative, but I find out about news on The Rubin Report or Joe Rogan's podcast way before I happen to pass by an old tv at the gym turned to CNN. These aren't news sources, they don't claim to be, but I end up first hearing about events with their spin for better or for worse. I take things with a grain of salt because I understand they're just entertainment, but it's a slippery slope that I can see people getting further and further entrenched in Vice's take, or Alex Jones's take, etc...
