In Everything I Need I Get from You, Kaitlyn Tiffany, a staff writer at The Atlantic and a superfan herself, guides us through the online world of fans, stans, and boybands.In the process, Tiffany makes a convincing, and often moving, argument that fangirls, in their ingenuity and collaboration, created the social internet we know today. "Before most people were using the internet for anything," Tiffany writes, "fans were using it for everything."
In conversation with Moira Weigel, co-author of Voices from the Valley, an Assistant Profesor of Critical Media Studies at Northeastern University and a founding editor of LOGIC magazine.
