If news agencies still had reporters that would be a problem.

They haven't since the 1980s.

Everything that you say as some sort of doom and gloom prediction about the future _is the world we've lived in for the last 40 years_.

This no reporter argument is so false but gets repeated often. If I only read internet articles from internet media companies you might have a little bit of a point, but actual newspapers have actual journalists. Some might be good and some might be bad, but they do employ people that do more than build an article around a tweet.
