It doesn't really matter if it should or shouldn't, it's going to play a role and it's only going to get more....bigger? I for one like a little public humiliation for people that funk up, it's just that the public is often misinformed and quick to judge and jump on people for sh**t they don't need jumped on for.
pretty much my thought as well. We could quibble about the use of the plural "media" instead of the option of a singular "medium" and I had a multiparagraph rant prepared, but you summed up my thoughts fairly succinctly so I'll just quote your post and nod. I'll also emphasize that effective jurisprudence does depend upon a well informed public, despite attempts at sequestration.
Anyway, I voted yes.
