AN ACCESSIBLE AND IMPORTANT LOOK AT WHAT IS TRULY BEHIND OUR DIGITAL
OUTRAGE
On any given day, at any given hour, across the various platforms
constituting what we call social media, someone is angry. Facebook.
Instagram. Twitter. Reddit. 4Chan. In _The Rhetoric of Outrage: Why
Social Media is Making Us Angry_ Jeff Rice addresses the critical
question of why anger has become the dominant digital response on
social media. He examines the theoretical and rhetorical explanations
for the intense rage that prevails across social media platforms, and
sheds new light on how our anger isn't merely a reaction against
singular events, but generated out of aggregated beliefs and ideas.
Captivating, accessible, and exceedingly important, _The Rhetoric of
Outrage _encourages readers to have the difficult conversations about
what is truly behind their anger.
