State of the Union era waning amid growing audience indifference
Mid-January reflections question the need for a big prime time address as President Obama moves toward delivering the State of the Union. The piece traces historic shifts from in person to written messages, notes TV viewership decline from 52.4 million in 2009 to 33.3 million in 2014, and argues the ritual may outlive its usefulness despite presidents enjoying the spotlight. The tone blends critique with historical context and cites Gene Healy and the idea of the presidency as a beacon of progress.
