      You are funny. That article links directly to what media typically refers to, i.e. “mass media”.

      Ask any typical person around you what they understand if you talk about “the media”, and they will confirm that this indeed refers to what I am talking about.

      The “social” qualifier is a direct reference to how normal media is a one way street and how publishing is only open to a selected few and that is what sets “social media” apart from it.
