When I Started Out As An Activist, The Issues Were Much Clearer. There's Advantage To The New Media, But On The Other Hand, You Miss The Ability To Frame An Issue That You Had When There Were Just Three Tv Networks: Cbs, Nbc, And Abc. So The Whole World Could See The Same Police Dogs. The Same Bull Connor And His White Tank. Now You've Got Narrow-casting. The Media Is All Fragmented. It's So Hard To Get People To Focus In A Sustained Way.
