Columbia Journalism Review: "Where Chuck Todd Failed" and I agree -
Chuck Todd channels "the very aspects of consensus practice in journalism that I hate: bothsidesism, false equivalence, an obsession with presidential politics, handwringing about ill-defined concepts like 'polarization,' a focus on political optics."

Fun fact for today: In the early '90s I once got reasonable grounds for a search warrant and an arrest based on the lexical punctuation analysis of a speech synthesis output used as a death threat, matched against the suspect's previously recorded typing/communication patterns.

That remains some of my favourite forensic work to this day.

How small-town intrigue between a police chief and the local in Kansas sent a shock through American (small town intrigue-feuds between police and papers happen all the time by the way—and often get little support. That’s my experience)

I don't honestly see from this generation coming here. Moving away from a centralised meeting place may be harder for the generation who have never been used to having to do investigative field work.

Most of the I've seen here are either from the older generation, or people starting out. The next change will be generational and take time.

The level of quality journalists has decreased together with the increase of news outlets online the last years.
These days it seems like all one need to become a journalist is experience from the high school student paper.

@tsyum usually use that phrasing in a breaking story, to indicate they made an attempt to reach the person before getting the first version of the story online. A final version would either have the person’s comment or would delete the word “immediately.”

@whitey @lowqualityfacts is a catch-all term that nets a wide variety of people. It includes opinion bloviators and mindless trend-followers — but also serious dedicated to holding those in power in accountable, dedicated to getting it and doing it right, who risk their lives and safety to bring us images we never forget, copy editors who unmix metaphors and so on. It’s a lazy mistake to lump all the bad with the good.
