"Two years ago, Buzz Bissinger took a stand against digital culture. A specialist in long-form magazine journalism and the author of “Friday Night Lights,” considered by some to be the best sports book ever written, Mr. Bissinger went on HBO’s “Costas Now” to launch a full-throated assault against online discourse, describing his “abiding hatred” for its sarcasm and venom.... Mr. Bissinger worried about his son, then 16, growing up in a world where information is “going to be glib, it is going generally to be profane, it is going to be quick.” Two years later, all those adjectives pretty much describe Mr. Bissinger’s own Twitter account (twitter.com/buzzbissinger), where his state-of-mind seems visible every few minutes." - Christopher Chung
