Breaking News: Andrew Keen Doesn't Get It
So Andrew Keen, the guy who writes this blog, officially sucks. His new book, The Cult of the Amateur, attempts to explain how the internet is destroying culture. Apparently, the professional class (and thus culture) is being squeezed out of public discourse as more and more ignorant plebians decide to set up webpages, clogging up all the internet tubes with non-professional drivel.
When Stephen Colbert suggests that this theory might perhaps be just a little bit elitist, Mr. Keen replies, "What's wrong with that?"
Lame!
P.S.: In other Stephen Colbert news, The Richard Branson Affair airs Wednesday!
