Ian Rose on Nostr: The Washington Post and LA Times are good newsrooms with some great journalists, but ...
The Washington Post and LA Times are good newsrooms with some great journalists, but owned by craven, greedy, lesser men. That's the reality of journalism today. When people talk about "the media" like it's one thing, I always try to jump in and correct them. There is no The Media. But there is also, in a very real sense, no The Washington Post. It's a house divided, often against itself, and Mark 3:25 and Mr. Lincoln were right about how well such structures tend to survive.
