The Consequences of Social Media Addiction

View descriptionShare

A grand jury has found social media giants Meta and YouTube liable on all counts in a landmark case that accused the tech companies of intentionally addicting a young woman and injuring her mental health. Seth discusses the consequences of social media addiction, referencing a recent court ruling that awarded millions to a plaintiff who claimed the platforms caused personal harm. He draws parallels with Neil Postman's book "Amusing Ourselves to Death," which predicted a society distracted by entertainment and pleasure. Actor Vince Vaughn said late-night talk shows are too “agenda-based” for people to watch. We're joined by John Dombroski, founder and president of Grand Canyon Planning Associates. Salem Phoenix General Manager Mark Durkin joins the show to discuss 960ThePatriot’s ongoing PreBorn! donation campaign and the possibility of an office hotdog roller machine.
