HW 6: radio to television, television to blogging
“I Blog, Therefore I am,” by David Kline is discussing the fact that readers are reading less and less newspapers. According to the chapter mainstream media will be changed forever through blogging. It says that people are reading papers less and watching news programs less as well. I reject the fact that this is true, at my home my father starts off everyday reading the newspaper and ends ever day watching the news. He is not the only person who that applies to there are many people that don’t have computers. If you do not have a computer the likely hood of you going on one to check a blog is slim to none. Although computers seem to have been around forever there are many people who grew up in times without them, and now have no desire to use them. If you spent your whole life getting your news from papers and the television you’re not going to change it just because that is the new thing. I do understand that blogging is a very effective way in getting people to communicate efficiently, and towards the end of the chapter he discusses this. When did the world change from hearing the news from sitting around their radio to watching it on the television? I believe that technology is constantly changing and blogging is just adding to that.
