When I was in high school in the mid 90 s , pretty much nobody I knew read for pleasure , and I was in the chess club . Today it would be odd to hear a kid say that he hasn ' t read Harry Potter . Kids know what books are , and they ' re willing to sit through doorstoppers like Order of the Phoenix , they just have more options . Television in particular has improved in the last thirty years . A show like Mad Men or Breaking Bad could never had made it in the threenetwork era . Anything too controversial or demanding would alienate viewers , so the networks played it safe with simple and predictable programming . I agree with the author that television can ' t engage our visual and spatial imagination like text or audio do , but I think it ' s a bit silly to suggest that TV shows aren ' t stories when those shows are increasingly reliant on seasonlong story arcs .
