There is still good journalism going on but it is seldom read as it can't afford to promote itself like the propaganda empowered by capital. In LA, we have LA TACO for example. But they don't have much staff, so they don't even publish at a rate of a single article a day, it can be a few days between articles, and they are only able to cover a limited set of topics.
People also of course aren't reading in general, they are watching reels and ticktocks.
- bsenftner 4mo agoI love LA TACO, I used to trade online comments with Ivan Fernandez, their editor at large, when I lived in Los Angeles. Him and Lalo Alcaraz, myself and a few others used to lament the journalism situation when running into one another at LA social events, like at The Brewery or Big Art Labs.
