You want to go back to an era where only a select few large, powerful outlets could decide what gets published? You see what’s happening with news media and governments threatening news outlets and you want to consolidate to that?

The rest of us would have to beg for their permission to let our words be heard?

I don’t think you’ve thought this fantasy through.

I didn't say anything about a few large, powerful outlets. I said outlets should at least share responsiblity for what they publish.

Only the large powerful outlets will have the budgets and legal connections to host user submitted content.
