Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
The Internet is making us stupid Legal sage Cass Sunstein says democracy is the first casualty of political discourse in the digital age.
  • Ah, internets.

    Given the fact that people are more inclined to post letters about things that they disagree with than they are things that they do hold with, I hope to come back to the letters here, tomorrow, and relish the irony. Yes, finding people disagreeing with the basis of Sunstein's claims (that hearing primarily those who agree with you increases the polarization of beliefs) as they read each other's letters and get more and more strident with their complaints. Oohh, look, it's happening already!
