I don't know how I feel about Obama in this new media age. The last few years has seen media technology explode in ways we've never thought of. Culture now is personal based, and with reality tv and such, pop culture is mixing with everything in a weird way. Obama's only been President for a month, but it's felt like a month. Maybe it's just odd that their is nothing to stand against. At least something so obvious. The news coverage was nauseating during the election, and they have not let off the pedal. Furthermore, it's odd seeing people's tweet's on CNN. I don't watch the news to see what web users think. That's what message boards are for. The only time internet users should have time on national news is when they send pictures or first hand accounts (ex: Mumbai attacks) That's a great use of internet based programming. We can't escape the grib of mainstream culture. Working within it. Take what they give you and try not to have them turn your brain to mush like Alec Baldwin said during the Super Bowl.
