Really interesting. I have a journalism degree and we spent some time in one of my courses dissecting how deeply television has influenced politics and how Americans view and choose their leaders. Nixon, Vietnam, Clinton...and all the public reactions to them.
The loss of civility in our society distresses me - I think social media has played a big part there too. I often wonder, where do we go from here?
