How is this different from what legacy media SOP has been since September 12, 2001? The only difference I see is a disagreement about the values this SOP is in service to. I also reject Trumpism XXL as the new status quo but it’s 25 years of this SOP that made it possible: #shareholderjournalism
#shareholderjournalism
Say it often, say it loud
100% This Flowers for Algernon infotainment #shareholderjournalism we have now has nothing to do with the 4th estate. It's an abject, shameful add-on to the entertainment industry.
Because #shareholderjournalism
NYT self-describes as a "fact-based media company."
#shareholderjournalism #infotainment
After 30 years of intensive media consolidation, journalists perform for each other and on behalf of the company's shareholders.
That is all.
No more #shareholderjournalism
I have observed, over many years, that journalists love power the way people who work on Wall Street love money.
That plus #shareholderjournalism leads me to believe your reasoning may be flawed.
But who cares? Let them have their fun. What do we need them for?
100%!
I see your a++ and raise you a toxic business model designed to serve shareholders at the expense of democracy and the free press's duty to inform the public.
No more #shareholderjournalism
They wouldn't lose their access. See: Seymour Hersch et al. There are *always* people who want to talk.
Journalists love power the way people on Wall Street love money.
And in this age of #shareholderjournalism, it's hard to tell the two groups apart.
#shareholderjournalism at its finest. When is #opinionnotopinion
It's corruption, pure and simple. His circus act makes a lot of money media, and a lot of other people, too. What you're looking at is the the Republican party bought and paid for, and the takeover of US public life by wealthy corporations and billionaires.

MSM is all about stirring up faux, irrelevant controversy for #eyeballs. #eyeballs for #$$$.
Talk about real issues and you might--gasp--offend #advertisers and that's a big whoopsie with #shareholders
#shareholderjournalism
Agree 100% but what you're objecting to isn't politically motivated--it's #shareholderjournalism.
It's a toxic feedback loop between whatever trends on social media and traditional media; the only value that matters is #eyeballsfor$$$.
Calling this political...makes money for shareholders.
