Yes, newspapers etc were one medium for many, but that does not mean that the individual humans were eliminated. The individual humans did become a group. One newspaper for all did create some sort of common reality. Today there is a tendency that everybody gets his own version. Commercials are special etc, one day they know your political opinion and will serve you special articles that may fit "better", the group has gone. Maybe it was lame to have one commercial for all, but that certain common reality is disapearing. There is less common ground for political action, discussions, talk.
