Print and TV can't possibly compete with the amount of rage generated by the hyper personalized targeting machine that Facebook is. Add to that the fact that anyone can push their flavor of rage for a modest price. I don't know if you've used Facebook over the last few years but if you haven't, you should give it a spin. It's incredible.

Still the label applies well to all corporate media.
