The pitfall of what's happening in the media is if you're under thirty, you get your news from the Internet and The Daily Show, and there's not much discrimination between what they find on the front page of The New York Times and what they find on the Internet.

The majority of people who don't have Internet, don't have the Internet because they don't know why they want to use the Internet.
I really love the internet. They say chat-rooms are the trailer park of the internet but I find it amazing.
