I am no longer on the journalists' sides here.

They are right that "raw power" is being wrestled from them by social media.

I am glad to see it, after seeing one-too-many hitjobs and too much activism all emanating from a singular and rapidly narrowing worldview.



You know how everyone rolls their eyes and are skeptical of the police policing themselves. My feelings are the same with the media. I never see the media fight, hard against themselves, like other professions. It just seems a bit to chummy inside the establishment. But Social Media is no panacea either. It's lots of people not moderating each other.
