the entire newscycle is complicit. if trump tweets something, 500 news agencies write a variant of a story around the tweet. the majority of news agencies dont seem to have the self discipline to NOT cover a story the others are, out of fear of lost eyeballs. news agencies could be even more powerful if they stopped amplifying bullshit, and were selective over what deserved attention. instead every company covers every viral event, creating a feedback loop of displacement. noise noise noise.
