An article on how the media works and why stupid topics keep coming up again and again.

Is there anyone who has any thoughts on the article?

I read it, but I can't think of much to say about it. It's rather ironic, but I believe the lack of comments is because it's not controversial.

It sounds like something out of a Kafka novel.

In other words, it sounds like something out of reality. This is the thing about Kafka - he is often criticised as a fantasist and a fabulist, but in fact he was the most realist writer who ever lived.

@Potemkin

I disagree because DO YOU KNOW WHAT NOBODY HATES EACH OTHER ABOUT?! KAFKA!!
