You are convincing in explaining the value of having high - even insatiable - expectations. But because such expectations do lead to the achievements we hope to see (and more !), wouldn't they NOT be 'too much' ?

We are NOT expecting too much because it has been proven that technology, especially the rate of transmission of content, will improve exponentially. It is WITHIN REASON to expect better, faster, more efficient technology based on Moore's Law

Written language is more important WHEN it delivers content that is meant to be recorded for posterity. Spoken words, expressed spontaneously, may need to be re-expressed, and each attempt at rephrasing could potentially add or deduct a nuance that alters the original meaning. ON THE OTHER HAND, the context of the an idea in its written form is clearly shown in the writing itself. This leaves less room for misinterpretation. E.G. It is important for a legal document such as to be written rather than spoken so that all the specific are clear, and literally, in plain sight. E.g. It is crucial that literary works be written down because oral transmission will lead to a loss intricate details, and ultimately, a loss in our cultural heritage.

Explain this : WHY can't television sustain viewership without entertainment ?

Explanation : Marshall McLuhan once wrote 'The medium is the message'. Tv's very ability to present content with moving pictures and sound made it a magnate for entertainment via an explosion of the senses. Thus, people turn to TV for entertainment, first - then for other purposes later

When you explain your e.g., you should also be linking to the keyword 'main'.

The anti-gambling campaign's main purpose is indeed to educate, but it can only achieve this purpose through entertainment
