I read this for a course prep (it's a fairly straightforward textbook), but I was stunned by just how dramatically things have changed since it's publishing. companies like Vice and Vine that Kovarik holds up as reasons for hope about the future of media are dead, Twitter is not a place known as uncontroversial on the corporate level and as a community of generosity on the user level, RFK Jr is not a leading liberal figure, and Facebook played an active role in dismantling our democracy rather than acted as a voice to promote it, and so on and so on. that's the nature of these revolutions though. for every prophetic vision of the future of technology, there are a thousand curves in the road that nobody saw coming
