It has been dying out for years, both of my parents are in the old media and they've seen layoffs consistantly for a while now.

2018-04-25 15:36:13 UTC  

Doesn’t it also have to do with people not buying newspapers anymore? Or spending money to get their news?

2018-04-25 15:36:24 UTC  

^

2018-04-25 15:36:28 UTC  

Absolutely

2018-04-25 15:36:30 UTC  

Because their main income comes from ads and that sort of stuff

2018-04-25 15:37:06 UTC  

*touch my slinky*

2018-04-25 15:37:06 UTC  

there have been news companies for a long time which were there purely to propagate bullshit, they make no money off their work, they're just propped up by backers

2018-04-25 15:37:13 UTC  

@Deleted User
Not even that, i guess it's mostly because how biased they are

2018-04-25 15:37:20 UTC  

these companies lose millions a year

2018-04-25 15:37:21 UTC  

The internet made it harder to sell newspapers and you earn less from ads online

2018-04-25 15:37:30 UTC  

it's something that after trump screaming "fake news" some people started to realize

2018-04-25 15:37:32 UTC  

some of them at least

2018-04-25 15:37:39 UTC  

and since they just doubled down on the bias

2018-04-25 15:37:42 UTC  

it's getting worse

2018-04-25 15:37:49 UTC  

So the propagandaists don't earn enough anymore to keep their lies believeble

2018-04-25 15:38:06 UTC  

Wasn't I talking about this a week ago?

2018-04-25 15:38:10 UTC  

Well, in New York all our newspapers practically have the same progressive message or propaganda

2018-04-25 15:38:10 UTC  

Propaganda becoming shit?

2018-04-25 15:38:17 UTC  

I dunno

2018-04-25 15:38:25 UTC  

I wasnt here then

2018-04-25 15:38:29 UTC  

I guess, if news channels starts to be unbiased or at least, have people from "both sides" they will probs have a longer life

2018-04-25 15:38:36 UTC  
2018-04-25 15:39:20 UTC  

even though propaganda has become extremely obvious and shit, it really worries me that a significant number of people still fall for it.

2018-04-25 15:39:39 UTC  

Every other news site would try to fuck it over, because not everyone could do it because then they wouldn't earn enough, and if one did it, everyone else would be outcompeted @Fulcrum010

2018-04-25 15:39:50 UTC  

It is like the atomic bomb of news

2018-04-25 15:40:38 UTC  

@Fulcrum010 not really possible. The point of news channels is to target a very specific audience. Fox and CNN for example have conservatives and “liberals” who watch them.

2018-04-25 15:41:12 UTC  

^that is the other hypothesis

2018-04-25 15:41:35 UTC  

There is a reason no one is unbiased tho

2018-04-25 15:41:48 UTC  

Because if it was profitable to be unbiased, then they'd do it

2018-04-25 15:41:49 UTC

Hey, it's just an idea...

2018-04-25 15:42:21 UTC  

David Knight talking about Chad

2018-04-25 15:42:23 UTC  

😐

2018-04-25 15:42:36 UTC  

There is an entire industry now about being anti-mainstream media

2018-04-25 15:42:44 UTC  

So there is a market

2018-04-25 15:42:50 UTC  

info wars

2018-04-25 15:43:10 UTC  

***INFORMATIONSKRIEG***

2018-04-25 15:44:19 UTC  

What about BBC? ..

2018-04-25 15:44:29 UTC  

I feel like they’re pretty neutral

2018-04-25 15:44:47 UTC  

@Deleted User Your dad is BBC
