Personal Response to “You Can Tell Everybody This is Your Song”
Personally, I disagree with almost everything this author chose to say and talk about in her article. I feel this “song” was very very stereotypical; she referred to social media as a large group consisting of people with the same characteristics. When in fact the part of social media that is seen, is the same group of people that feed on any type of news for something to talk about. The author implied that people seem to think, if it was not on social media, it was not that important or that it simply was not a big enough event to classify as had happened. What she fails to mention is that many people who are on social media do not interact with what events are popping up on their timeline. Or that news still gets out through talk and the age old newspaper. Yes, many people of today's’ generation is on social media but that does not mean we all live off of it.
