(This is not a statement about their journalistic quality. But:)
Axios is an interesting example of changing the format of news story writing to be both more concise and more visually scannable. And, thus, easier to glean important info from.
See, for example:

Compare to a more traditionally written article:

I do think the way we communicate with the written word online needs to continue to evolve. The way we read and learn is certainly very different.
Anyway. That's what this article makes me think of.
