syne Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Social media can never replace true journalism IMO. I agree it can't and shouldn't, but it is replacing a lot of people's access to the 'news'. There's an interesting thing that happens, when people -who so far have unknowingly benefited from journalistic integrity- gain access to online facilities they frequently firstly end up on social media, often as friends relatives have encouraged them to get online for this precise reason. They then appear to not realise the difference and regurgitate a lot of crap as news that bears only a format with actual news. It tapers out when they're a bit less green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
