A. I hate those social media maggots. They use their phone for everything and almost never think for themselves.

A. Why do you do something that does not make any REAL money or is useful in any way. Stop being a social media maggot already!
B. I am paid in Bitcoin and through Paypal. I help people feel slightly less miserable about themselves when they watch my videos.
A. This new generation does not listen to its elders. They are all socially addicted to their apps and facebooks.

Get the Social Media mug.The secret connection or coupling of a media outlet to a governmental body or organization. The intent is to influence the public (consumer) to react or think in a specific way desired by the governmental body or organization. Coupled Media outlets can be segmented so that only specific segments are under the control of a governmental body or organization. This definition is separate from a media outlet with an open political or opinionated leaning. Clearly marked advertisements are generally separate from the coupled media definition because they are openly marked as advertisements.
