Amongst my varied and interesting academic life I have studied psychology and social science. When I do a comparison of the way people appear on tv and the internet I see that tv seems stale and the rising internet stars seem energised and motivated.

 

On a technical basis the tv is old tech and I believe that one of two things will happen to tv long term. 1. A reinvention 2. Devolution into a news service only for less technically able groups.

 

As my elderly mother told me recently the same thing happened to radio many decades ago.

 

Seems like the truer interactivity the internet provides leaves fans feeling closer to their celebrities more than tv ever could.
