#America is struggling w/ several crises, most notably a #radical, #antidemocratic leader & movement controlling one of its major #political parties. America’s journalism industry is also in crisis: Its traditional funding sources are drying up, leading to mass #layoffs.
…The #journalism industry should reorganize itself to focus squarely on #America’s crises, both to help the country & give itself a clear #mission & purpose that could make it more financially viable in the long run. We need more #reporters reading #environmental impact studies & #school-improvement plans, w/ #salaries funded by #readers who are essentially giving a tithe to #democracy. And perhaps fewer #journalists in football stadiums.
