Stephen King : @StephenKing

Tweet (no attribution): "Fox news did to our parents what our parents were afraid video games would do to us."

It's also here:

And here:

Tracking back further, the same idea is here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Brainwashing_of_My_Dad

But it's always hard to find the "true source" of something where the wording is gently mutated over time. Is it really the source if it's the same idea but in different words?

And why did Stephen King explicitly not quote an attribution?

It's murky ... perhaps it would be better left as "Attributions vary". Never sure what to do in cases like this.

Not entirely sure it really matters.
