(503 posts)When Current T.V. folded, Cenk Yuger (sp?) moved Young Turks back to where it originally started: online. Fugelsang is another one too rational and outspoken for the corp-drone media, but who would fit great in a podcast or Web show out of the grips of the corporate ad men and the M$M. Unfortunately, that also means that Cenk and Fugelsang are going to be shut out of the mainstream and pretty much prevented from getting anything really going, at least until the millennials, especially the younger ones ~18 or so who don't watch "TV" at all -- save maybe for Jon Stewart (and perhaps Fallon, bleh) -- but get everything online, take over, and shove the M$M out of business by ignoring them altogether.
Fugelsang is obviously not a millennial. He is 45. But he is certainly representative of the rise of the young Nones who are steadily growing in number. And I say more power to him.
