I always admire the self-importance journalists assign to themselves. Most local news was and would ever be utter trash. Small town journalism could only survive by peddling to some powerful local group or a political enterprise. With all its problems, social media has proven over and over to be a far more useful tool for communities.

I just LOVE how you proclaim this, without first seeing (a) the cosequences of social media (good or bad) 30+ years from now, and (b) whatever disrupts current social media next.
Social media, maybe. Social (and other) ad-driven media? Certainly not.
