Why?

  1. The word "Gothic" still refers to a historical people, an architectural style, etc.

  2. The media didn't invent Goth subculture.

  3. Goths have never been popular with the media, so if anything has overwritten the old meaning of the word "Goth", it would not be the media.

  4. The title you have chosen for your post is especially boomerish given the content of the post.

I learned about the goth subculture from the media and hollywood movies.

If you type gothic into bing, you get 90% pictures of vampirelike stuff. Changing the meaning of words is one of the ways they subvert us.
