most journalists stop doing this decades ago and the ones who still do it find themselves in prison or deplatformed.

Thankfully cable news is not as relevant as it once was… more so as the boomers retire and are unable to watch tv anymore

youtube, facebook, et al. deplatforms at a SIGNIFICANTLY higher rate than cable news or any legacy media does.

And? There are way better news sources than Facebook and YouTube but independent online news sources are more popular than tv news if I’m not mistaken.
