General Discussion

Outside of rw propaganda networks, I don’t think the reporters/pundits are an “enemy of the people” to go after (that’s the fascist hangup). It’s probably largely a group comprised of uninspired/frustrated employees who are told not to rock the boat by CEOs who apparently have chosen (for now) to go along with the Trump delusion.

Trump/Heritage foundation mess loyalists are already desperate and essentially backed into a corner, because when they choose to abuse people, word gets out in ways they didn’t/were too stupid to account for. Individual’s names like Garcia and others aren’t forgotten, the news of who is being primarily targeted is shared across multiple apps/platforms.

This represents our foundation for a newer, more courageous media response to what they’re attempting.

I don’t think people even give their first look to TV media/corporate networks anymore. The far right knows this, that’s why they went into podcasts to seek influence.

I think eventually, post-Trump, they won’t ever be the same anyway. Instead of a place for nightly news everyone watches, it’ll probably be (talking about TV news) something people put on in the background like a thanksgiving day parade that has a mix of short documentaries, national weather, softer reporting that isn’t investigative per se, but also not corporate ass kissery.

Investigative journalism, for better or worse, will tend to work (or meet its new challenges) through a network of more decentralized information sharing devices and technology.
