It cannot even be called news, since, the content which is being popularized, isn’t even being read for its merits or it’s relevancy.

First, she thinks, “Oh, yeah, I have all week to finish this essay; it’s due on Friday, which is so far away.” Two days later, “Maybe it’s a good idea to start thinking about the topic,” but then she discovers there is a new movie on Netflix that…
