'But to see the truly hysterical old media in action, you need to just
pay attention to the collective freakout over the White House's decision
to let three YouTube stars interview President Obama. It quickly became
an easy punchline for sneering elites that this was somehow "beneath the
dignity" of the White House.'

Another perspective on the declining legitimacy of mass media news
providers.

Share and enjoy,
