People write things online that they wouldn’t dare say face-to-face to anyone. They’d be too embarrassed to act like that in public, but because there is little or no consequence, this type of behavior runs rampant online. Now…what if all of a sudden those same people felt absolutely no shame and decided it was okay to act like that offline? As students of advertising, one of the first things we learn is that, “The medium is the message.” This phrase was coined by Marshall McLuhan back…
