This strikes me as kind of a naive take in 2024. Even the AP has been pushing a politicized agenda. The newspaper I paid good money to read for many years is now unreadable propaganda. I’ve been forced to get my news from X if I don’t want censorship, and oh my does X have its flaws.

It’s hardly surprising, look at who is graduating from journalism schools, what they are taught and what their agenda is. The consumers did not create this problem, they’re simply powerless to resist it - except that they can take their attention elsewhere, and that is exactly what they’re doing.

Information being bottlenecked through a handful of institutions has been increasingly harmful to society and is what has led us to this very moment. Let the people speak.
