Building a bridge to the 18th Century book.

Postman stated, "Information; statements about facts; can be wrong".

In the book states, " They are what they are. Statements about facts - that is information - can be wrong, and often are. Thus to say that we live in an unprecedented age of information is merely to say that we have available more statements about the world than we have ever had. Those who speak enthusiastically of the great volume of statements about the world available on the internet do not usually address how we may distinguish the true from the false. The internet can have no interest in such a distinction by its nature. It is not a truth medium; it is an information medium. But in theory, at least, newspapers do have such an interest, and there are no editors anywhere who will claim that it is not their business to separate the true from the false.

My question to you; Do you agree that we are living in an age of too much information?
