This video from @TaylorLorenz about the potential collapse of journalism is deeply important. Especially over the past 48 hours
“I don’t think people understand how bad the world would be without journalists”
“I don’t want to live in a world where all of the news is delivered through 60-second videos with retention editing”

“Journalism is something a lot of people won’t realize they miss until it’s gone”
