Default It's a Golden Age of media - but not for long...

Throughout most of history, humans lived in a state of extreme information
poverty. News traveled slowly, field to field, village to village. Even with
the printing press's advent, information spread at a snail's pace. Few knew
how to find printed materials, assuming that they even knew how to read.
Today, by contrast, we live in a world of unprecedented media abundance that
once would have been the stuff of science-fiction novels. We can
increasingly obtain and consume whatever media we want, wherever and
whenever we want: television, radio, newspapers, magazines, and the
bewildering variety of material available on the Internet.

This media cornucopia is a wonderful development for a free society-or so
you'd think.

It's all crap. Like saying the day after Halloween yields an
abundance of food.
