"Messianic Internet Types"

Follow these links: it's a good starting place for us to start thinking about a counter-point to Gillmor's optimism (sorry, Moshe).

The Hart ("Easy Citizenship: Television's Curious Legacy") and Prior ("News vs. Entertainment: How Increasing Media Choice Widens Gaps in Political Knowledge and Turnout") articles fit in here, too, so if you have time, read them (or give 'em a good skim). . . . . .

Monday we'll begin to build a critique of Gillmor, and temper his hopefulness (seriously: sorry, Moshe).
