A little too on-the-nose, maybe?: Harlan Ellison on the information explosion

“When they say, ‘Gee it’s an information explosion!’, no, it’s not an explosion, it’s a disgorgement of the bowels is what it is. Every idiotic thing that anybody could possibly write or say or think can get into the body politic now, where before things would have to have some merit to go through the publishing routine, now, ANYTHING.” – Harlan Ellison
