The revolution will not be televised.
The revolution will not be televised because TV, like all other forms of mass media, is technologically obsolete, if not highly dysfunctional.
Mass media thinks, talks, and writes in clichés, reporting on all the news that's not fit to print or broadcast.
Mass media is designed to keep people ignorant and apathetic.
Mass media conditions people to become mass products to be sold to advertisers for mass consumption.
The revolution will not be televised but it is being blogged.
The revolution is on the blogs, and is on the wikis, and is on peer-to-peer.
I know the revolution is being blogged because I am one of millions who are blogging, editing wikis, and sharing files.
I am one of millions who are thinking and feeling, reading and writing, tagging and posting, uploading and downloading, day and night, all over the world.
There are more of us every day.
We the media are holding mass media accountable, and the corporations and politicians that control them, because we know that the emperor has no clothes on, and word is spreading throughout the crowd.
We the media are blogging, editing, and sharing our thoughts, links, knowledge, files, and most importantly we are disseminating, connecting, and increasing our awareness via the net.
We the media are swarming and Flickring with our Long Tail, using the new Gutenberg printing press, with its Movable Type, which we continue to create and create with.
We are helping to usher in a new Reformation, a new Renaissance, a new Age of Reason.
We are helping to usher in a new Enlightenment that is changing the world for the better.
The revolution is being blogged.
