As a young writer/journalist, I obviously depend on this so-called power in the written word. And I contend that there still is. Watergate being the chief example.
But something I came across today said it better than I ever could:
"The written word has power. With skill, reporters can expose the dark deeds of the world and bring them into the light. However, journalism is limited to non-apathetic, mono-linguistic people with some time to kill and a few neurons still firing."
Exactly. Couldn't agree anymore. Beautiful.
Maybe those that aren't apathetic and still have "a few neurons firing" feel the same.
