“信息肥胖症”指的是信息消费过量导致的一种新病症。

Nowadays newspapers, magazines, television and the Internet are producing far more information than we can absorb, which seduces us into ingesting too much, just like food.

在现今这个时代,报纸、杂志、电视、网络都在制造大量信息,这些信息引诱着我们不断去摄取,即使我们早已“吃饱了”。 

The information served up by commercial television is usually poor in fiber and high in the information equivalent of fat and sugar. People are becoming “infobese” from overconsumption of such information.

商业电视提供的信息餐往往“纤维”含量少而“脂肪”和“糖分”含量高。过度摄取这种信息正使人们患上“信息肥胖症”。
