Television saved the movies. The Internet is going to save the news business.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Internet is going to have a bigger impact on content creators than the television ever had. The reason why that's the case is that suddenly you're able to tell stories 24/7 in the home, out of the home, in every room of the home. A television screen can be in your pocket through a smartphone.
The internet creates more of an appetite for media - it doesn't replace physical books, radio or TV.
So many people are are using the Internet now to watch movies and TV shows online.
I just love when the Internet is wrong. It's the only thing that will save journalism.
The stories about broadcast dying or it being overtaken by cable have stopped. Same goes for the stories about the Internet hurting our business.
In a way, film and television are in the same sort of traumatic trance that print journalism is. The technology has outpaced our comprehension of its implications.
The future of television is not on television but online. A majority of us are turning to our computers and mobile devices for news and entertainment, Millennials especially.
Radio killed variety and TV killed radio, and the internet will kill television and it will go on and on.
Life is so fast these days, and we're exposed to so much information. Television makes us a witness to such misery.
To say the Internet is the death of books and movies is like saying someone invented a new, more efficient kind of cup and it heralds the death of coffee - a new improved form of carrying something, which is essentially what the Internet is, should be helpful to our business.
