In contrast to what many older generations believe about texting, discuss McWhorter's views on the subject. What does he think and why?

Mc Whorter believes that texting "degradates written language" because he thinks that texting is not really a written language. He also adds that texting resembles spoken language due to the fact that it avoids punctuation and capitalization. It tends to be looser and telegraphic, as well as less reflective.
