Thanks, I misunderstood you. You touch on a terrible problem. I read on Yahoo a few days ago that one of the endangered species in terms of jobs available in America is reporters, journalists. Whether they work for right- or left wing newspapers, or some other journal, quality journalism, quality writing and quality publications are absolutely essential for a quality America to subsist.

Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World is forgotten today for being a quaint, slanted view of the future. But what Huxley was concerned about, was whether technology was going to advance human civilization or demolish it, in unforeseen ways. We are enjoying information technology as we speak. But you can also see the advance of the cockroaches wherever you look on the internet. So you have my sympathy, even if I misrepresent your point again, to some degree.

Let me stop right here. Please say something utterly uninteresting so I can finally say goodbye to this thread.
