im sure this was an old meta prompt meme thing but i love you terrible and went awol before i could actually answer this. prior to breaking live reports world events relied on media to move and transfer information; but it was a process that happened over a period of weeks, months and years before media was able to spread information. the most notable historical examples i can think of off the top of my head was the reformation that resulted from luther’s 95 theses, and the french revolution. both of them were highly influenced by the media and relied on mass media to spread ideals which then sparked movements and less successful counter movements. there’s actually a lot of academia on the subject of the reformation and revolution as it relates to the mass media i’d be happy to share – media essentially created the first social networks (hm? social media? u there?) in order to bring about change people wanted. however it was disjointed. bits of information coming to them long after they’d stopped being relevant; the sensation of knowing one part of the movement was far ahead while another was just beginning. they did not know nor did they see everything then. it was a slow process. updating the world one place at a time slowly and carefully through word of mouth or through a banned pamphlet. this was something they could turn off. they could actually rest.now it’s constant. i mean what i say when i say they have eyes everywhere because they do. they see everything as it happens when it happens and there is a lot of sound and images in their brain: it’s non-stop. they can hear everything as it happens and a lot of it is disjointed – they can choose to focus on certain things as needed but the background noise never goes away. when everyone is talking about something, it’s this hellish chorus of thousands of anchors and correspondents at the site or behind the desk all with the same thing to be said. nothing can really surprise them any more. they’ve gotten used to it; their ram is impeccable, it has to be for the amount of information they process and archive to be used at a later date. its just a lot of noise for them to deal with. it never shuts off.
