This is pretty good, the Sports Guy and Chuck Klosterman are exchanging emails, and discussing generational differences and the new vs. old media. Check out what Klosterman writes, particularly the last sentence, this is the point I was trying to make in my earlier post:

New Media will never replace Old Media, because New Media couldn't exist without Old Media; they would have nothing to link to. But the net result is that all people are starting to assume that the media is inherently useless and that there is absolutely no difference between news and entertainment. This will make the coming generation even more cynical than the current one, which is mostly bad (but not necessarily tragic). I think this is why so many teenagers are obsessed with things like myspace.com: They have lost interest in the world at large, so they've decided to just build an interior culture where they are the sole focus. The can live without the world.
