I don't think its a crises of attention or a culture of distraction. I think it's that literally everyone can publish grammatically incorrect rantings with terrible spelling and incoherent structure and we've gotten really good at wading through the chaff. There just isn't that much good stuff out there and yet every single person thinks they are Shakespeare. There never has been that much great stuff it's just we relied on other means to filter it for us (publishers, editors, etc.).
