...having also grown up in rural iowa, the sarcasm is more than appropriate...

PBS was one of five channels when i was a kid, and that was in the eighties/nineties when the internet was still mostly dial up BBS systems...

even then, newspapers, radio, and word-of-mouth were still a thing.

these idiots really think farmers are inbred hicks who see cellphones as evil witchcraft or something...

addendum almost forgot. in the early 2000s, the town i lived in as a kid, then occupied by my grandmother, was right in the path AT&T was building a large fiber optic network through, so my grandmother had highspeed internet when most towns were lucky to get dial-up, making this whole concept painfully stupid...
