With the demise of journalism, the art of storytelling will disappear to be consumable pieces from an invisible hand. Gone are the days of celebrity poets and playwrights, and today there is a domination of the same strands of a story, diluted to be consumed immensely by the ghostly public, who gauge their public opinion and what others do. A conglomeration of news and the destruction of the celebrity writer has killed off journalism to a point where there could almost be a robot to disperse the stories that are discovered, for the soul of the storyteller is a rare gift indeed, one that is rarely come across by the denizens of the public and the mass stupor that they possess.
