Well, for people upholding certain cultural values like me, which are not exactly too far-fetched, it&#x27;s pretty obvious why an era where people watch live gaming in droves is depressing when contrasted with the decline of journalism.<p>I&#x27;d rather there was a citizenry that read the Washington Post more than watching others play video games (or NFL or whatever) more. Maybe people would have a better handle of politics, and the economy and what&#x27;s going on around them.
