One thing I think is - it’s nearly impossible for the media to be all things to all people; because I think the difference between different groups (say Republicans and Democrats) isn’t what we believe, but how we believe it. The language and arguments we use. I loosely speaking mostly believe in free markets, capitalism, etc. but I only want to hear like professors of economics (right leaning or left leaning) talking about it, trying to talk about the free market with right wing relatives is crazy making, and I think these are the people mainstream media needs to appeal to.

I don’t know why this has changed recently, I’m guessing it’s just the fact that people have more choices, but I’d rather create my own “media organization” by picking and choosing from a variety of writers, than consume everything from say, the New York Times.

Even if I can blur my eyes and see that is objectively a good thing that the New York Times tried to appeal to a wider variety of groups, like, I’m not going to drive myself crazy reading through a bunch of ham fisted articles purely written in an attempt to seem non-partisan.

I want to read dynamic and diverse perspective on COVID vaccines, but informed ones, not an op-ed from RFK jr. on Ivermectin.
