inevitable at the electric speed that involves the entire society 
in the decision-making process, shocks the old press men 
because it abdicates any definite point of view. As the speed of 
information increases, the tendency is for politics to move 
away from representation and delegation of constituents 
toward immediate involvement of the entire community in the 
central acts of decision. Slower speeds of information make 
delegation and representation mandatory. Associated with 
such delegation are the points of view of the different sectors 
of public interest that are expected to be put forward for 
processing and consideration by the rest of the community. 
When the electric speed is introduced into such a delegated and 
representational organization, this obsolescent organization 
can only be made to function by a series of subterfuges and 
makeshifts. These strike some observers as base betrayals of 
the original aims and purposes of the established forms.
