There’s a trend here. Social media networks, which, until recently, claimed that legacy media were a thing of the past, are gradually becoming legacy media themselves.

Highly interesting take! Go for the "boring minutiae" and let the people know what you think they ought to know. [That is: Care less about a) what the audience might want to know and b) is measurable]
Of course, it also remains true that you have to be able to afford it, difficult as a USP.#niemanlab #journalism #journalismus #journalism2025

At the end this post, I’ll point to some starting points for figuring out what values a new generation of journalists could promote instead.” [Jonathan Stray/NiemanLab]
