When Journalism was a Thing | Alexandra Kitty

2 posts | 1 read

Journalism used to be a thing. It used to be a powerful and wonderful thing, yet now it has become a curiosity, and not even the Internet can resurrect it. When Journalism was a Thing considers the downfall and the reasons why, but also offers a model for a new approach to the once-noble profession.

so-so

Interesting ideas, but poor evidence and faulty reasoning. The author idealises journalism‘s past and, despite advocating for facts and truth, creates a false narrative of balance that relies on blatant untruths. A bit disappointing.
