    Just because you put on a fucking safari helmet, and went and looked at some poop, doesn't give you the right to insult what we do.

What a fantastic line by Carr. I enjoy some of the Vice stuff, but he's right. It's just news pornography for the most part, though it is entertaining.

    Everyone is being hypercritical of old media, while constantly forgiving the flaws of new media.

Well said, and simply put. Far more concise and easier on the eyes than my rant was. :)
