It was the late nineteenth century social philosopher #GabrielTarde who first suggested that the public and publics, which in earlier times were defined for the most part by their haptic proximity – all those salons and coffee houses – are formed, now, by the subordination of the haptic to another kind and degree of proximity, a social mode of temporality – simultaneity – that Tarde mentions in connection with the news.
