Worked at a newspaper for a few years.
With very few exceptions, they do not give a fuck about you or the news. The advertisers are their customers and your attention is their product.
Journalism died decades ago.
Decades ago? This has always been the case. It was the case 50 years ago. Still is now.
I never understood why people think journalism was better before.
Now we just have internet to fact check and communicate with friends about it, so it is just exposed. I know it is unreliable, but much better than anything 50+ years ago.
Same with cable TV, which is why I don’t watch it.
