I agree with you there.

True journalism is a dead art anymore, and has been for quite sometime now as everyone rushes to get their story out first. More often than not, lacking details necessary to make a truly informed opinion. Too many articles riddled with grammar, punctuation, and my biggest pet peeve, spelling errors.

I don't mind when an occasional error slips by, but occasional is not the norm anymore.

I guess you’re right. The time race effectively kills discourse and art.

I was remembering that conversation used to be much less the grunting contest it is today, between two or more people, and more of an art form, with an affection for vocabulary and a little story telling was thrown in and thought to be laudable. All things are a fast food operation, today.
