<span>Beatty tells Montag that the decline of books started around the Civil War. People became more interested in gossip and television, and books were condensed. Also, since some authors argued about the Civil War and had different opinions, there was conflict, and it was thought that in order to get rid of that conflict, it would be better to do away with the books. My reaction is that people became more interested in human interest and short ways to get news and entertainment instead of reading a thought-provoking book. It seemed that people didn't want to involve themselves in any of the difficult decisions anymore, they would rather push it to the back of their minds and enjoy the entertainment of television instead of going through the work of reading a book.</span>

Why should politicians utilise the internet for their election campaign??
Firlakuza [10]
They have a further reach than just the area they are in.  They can access social media, websites, and news outlets with the internet.  It can save time and money as well.  A wide range of audience is available via the internet.  People in current times seem to be highly influenced by the internet.  Those are just a few ideas that came to mind.  If you have multiple choices, list them.  You can also stick around a little bit and see what others have to say.
