I think the message behind this satirical text is that new and digital media can be the driving force behind the loss of common sense and how we truly leave in the information age. Messages spread quickly in the viral community, through social networking websites such as twitter. When it would of taken traditional media institutions at least 24 hours to get the news story out, new and digital media now allows for instant information, its easily accessible and easily shareable from laptops, tablets to smartphones.
The message of the show is to show us how new and digital media could be our destruction, that just because a piece of UGC is used in the wrong way, the prime minster goes along with it. 25 years ago nothing like this could happen becuase there wasnt the capabilites, but now if we dont use common sense when using these services and products, it will destroy us because there are people with bad values and ideologies, who want to do bad for the world, and use the internet for it. They can do these things because on the internet there is a lack of censorship.
