Let me propose a technical solution for a social problem: use AdBlock, subscribe to your fave newspaper. The sooner the paid-by-ads clickbait model of the media dies, the less effective the trolling will be.
- studentrob 10y agoSpeed, quality, cost. Choose any two. Right now the favorite media, digitally crowd sourced, reports news quickly and is cheaper (free) than what you propose. If someone demonstrates an ability to make use of this world-wide army of reporters and make quality news out of it, with links to actual sources including context, relevant sections of video on the same page, etc., I would pay for that. Right now, online publishers are still caught up in earning money from advertising, so they won't link externally. Getting back quality will require both substantial talent and investment.
