Is Social Media an Existential Threat?

from Thinking Out Loud Hosted by Nathan Rittenhouse & Cameron McAllister

A recent Atlantic article by social psychologist, Jonathan Haidt, argues that not only is social media making us stupider, it's also threatening to tear our society apart. These are bold claims, but Haidt's evidence is compelling and worthy of a close look. In this episode, Nathan and Cameron wrestle with the article and consider its broader implications.
