I agree. It's not like the media is promoting the importance of better/higher education and the importance of constantly learning to better oneself. All they're doing is making the so called 'nerds' look like some terminally annoying snooty people. What is more infuriating, is putting the nerd label on anyone who has read a book. Go figure! Apparently the quality of the literature and knowledge is none of their concern as far as you look like a total dork and hold a book in your hand. I watched the commercial and cringed the whole time. Yikes!
