Quasi Daily THING of the day
Today’s Quasi Daily piece is not an article, but, an amazing electronic version of Tuesday night’s American Forum.
The topic: Are Media Making Us Dumber? Intellect, Ignorance and Influence in the Digital Age
The panel was moderated by Dr. Danna Walker and was a very dynamic discussion. The guests included:
- Susan Jacoby, author of The Age of American Unreason;
Professor Kathryn Montgomery, author of Generation Digital: Politics, Commerce, and Childhood in the Age of the Internet;
Andy Carvin, senior strategist for online communities at National Public Radio;
Josh Hatch, multimedia producer, USA Today.
Whom do you agree with? Whom do you disagree with? Why?
