I have not been paying much attention but the most obvious cause is
the overwhelming prevalence of visual media to communicate and
entertain; that is, television. If you want to improve your writing
skills then read more and read only well written books. My favourite
master of the English language is P. G. Wodehouse. His humor masks one
of the best writers of the last century.
