in the end, i suspect this is the result of Silicon Valley companies very effectively curating the legacy media tech journalists that inform the general public. they reward the superficial gee-whiz tech journalism about Apple adding a new button or whatever by providing further access. but these tech journalists are **not** the ones equipped to help us grapple with how this new technology is upending basically every part of the economy and the workplace. 

 thank you for coming to my Ted Talk [jumps out a window] 

 @dee34601 and when more qualified journalists like the NYT start digging into issues, the tech companies and their boot lickers start whining about an anti-tech agenda because, like conservatism, tech is always good and cannot possibly be wrong 

 @88ba0050 exactly. credit where it's due, they are very good at managing the media!
