I would wager it's more of a vicious cycle, with other factors at play.
- Spooky23 7y agoThat’s a great question, and the conclusion I draw from observations are just conjecture. The thing that bugs me about these genres of dumb TV is that the constant attention grabbing and little dopamine hits of whatever the crisis de jure is has to have some impact. My in-laws called me this summer genuinely concerned about thunderstorms approaching some place in Alabama. We live like 1500 miles away.
