This doesn't seem depressing to me, it seems completely hopeful. What is 
'word of mouth' but authentic culture by real people? The fact that 
these focus group people are finding out about everything by 
'word-of-mouth' means they aren't being influenced by what's being 
pushed, but by what their peers think is interesting. To me that's 
really an exciting development.
