What Happens When Celebrity Becomes Universal?

I'm not really a Twitter girl as much, although partly why I don't like Twitter is because of hot take culture. So what's really interesting about this New Yorker article and what Chris Hayes is getting into is the history in America pre-internet of this kind of culture. In Amusing Ourselves to Death from 1985, Neil Postman argues that for the first 150 years, the US was a culture of readers and writers. According to Postman, he says TV destroyed all of that. It replaced written culture with a culture of images that was in a very little sense meaningless. They argue with good looks, celebrities and commercials. Think about how this applies to TikTok.
