More Democratic Twitter Needed?
Would Hillary have won if she had used Twitter more, in the fashion of Donald Trump? It occurs to me that Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh is another successful user of Twitter. Twitter allows one to bypress the press corps, the gatekeepers with regard to the news that gets reported and discussed. Could this be a good thing, or is it a necessary evil until we find something better? Probably both of these are correct, and this is just aspect of the larger desire for change.
