I think that Axios is the exception that proves the rule. They are a fairly new company. And they are doing their best to do real, fact-based reporting. But the market for it is gone. Liberals are not looking for real, fact-based reporting in name-brand media. Conservatives are not looking for real, fact-based reporting in name-brand media. So, his "let's do this right and people will come" isn't selling well to very many people.
Axios' real question should be whether Bari Weiss, Jim Kunstler, Naomi Wolf, Matt Taibbi, and Joe Rogan have lost their minds; or if they kept their minds and found themselves unwelcome in name-brand media and so set off for places to do journalism in peace..
Never once mentions that the Tariffs are meant to stop illegal immigration and hence human (child) trafficking and drugs. The article is partially true, but I'm happy to pay more to stop those things. I kind of think most people would be....but AXIOS leaves out, at least in my mind, the important bits.
I read someone recently who said we shouldn't even refer to them as Mainstream anymore....because they're not. I think I'm just going to start using Legacy Media....
yes only the name "legacy media" gives a headache - its sounds like a when military people attach scientific names to things and that you discover about it. You would say "hey this is right" but the problem is that media should be Assange's journalism and not entertainment - so attaching a scientific name to it is definitely going to far
We're, each of us, a medium who is essential to broadcasting reality.

Ha, you caught me commenting without reading the other comments first. I should have referred to it as Legacy Media.
I don't know AXIOS well, but they write this article:

Excellent point. I'll think about other options. hmmmm
