my thanks to @gregorymoore & @radhikajones for a thoughtful conversation about the current tumult in American journalism: a broken business model, a political divide that erodes trust in reporters & a need for more inclusion and transparency 1/3
.@radhikajones says trust in the media can be rebuilt:the more we can reestablish that people in the media are not the enemy..are holding powerful people to account..providing clarity, providing a service, the more we make decisions in transparent ways, the better off we will be"
& @gregorymoore says 1,800 newspapers lost means "150 years of credibility..being replaced by upstarts that haven't earned the right to be where they are...doing it by appealing to what people already think they know..confirming the very limited, siloed existence they have" 3/4
more @gregorymoore "we're at a perilous moment where we can't even agree on a common set of facts because of the fractured nature of the media" & adds: "we are witnessing what I have described as the whitening of the media" pbs.org/newshour/show/…
