Washington Post is basically done

This is basically the fate of all legacy media.

Its funny watching billionaires blow their wads on TV and “print” journalism when that isn’t the future of journalism at all.

I believe the average age for cable news viewers is something like 65? Which tracks, cause honestly who is watching that shit besides boomers who don’t know how to turn the TV off? Newpapers have been dying for basically my entire adult life at this point.

Fascinating to watch the chaos as public opinion slowly comes unmoored from traditional authoritative sources of information and heavily democratizes. Yes, there is a ton of conspiratorial shit out there, but there is also a lot of raw dog journalism happening that the big guys would have never allowed either.
