The role of media in the world
'What role does media play in people's lives? And what's the biggest challenge facing the modern media industry today?" Ben contemplated this challenging interview question as he rocked back in his chair.
If he got this wrong, he was certain it would be the end of his interview. He could tell from the aloof body language of everyone in the conference room that no one expected him to know the answer, and they were right…
He didn't have a good answer…but he wouldn't quit without at least trying. Ben thought about his old otaku lifestyle, growing up alone in a room, with nothing but media to call his friend. He recalled how close he was to that friend, and how if it wasn't for that friend, he'd still be stuck in that room, but in an even worse state—with the windows down, blind and deaf to the outside world.
