Media Idolized.
Jenkins' piece speaks a very real truth to me. I believe that with the technology gaining more power, the ability of the people involved in it gain power in their academics. This is far more than just reading articles that would otherwise have taken years to find, but as Jenkins said, we are now able to combine our thoughts and beliefs through media. Things are definitely changing and for the most part it is for the better. Where originally things never met each other in other "disciplines" now we are able to view the thoughts of others quicker and more precise so that everything works for the better of EVERYONE. Think about it, if we are all melding our thoughts together than everything we do is done with everyone in mind, and therefore things are being done to help others. Media is bringing about a change in how the the world fixes its problems. by technology getting stronger the world is getting stronger and smarter in everything it does through media. THere are set backs where it creates a new sense of competition to become the next best thing, but if we take everything as a collaboration rather than a solo mission, then perhaps technology can neutralize competition between individuals.
