Ping.
I’ve been commenting on other threads that this Iran crisis may give us some idea of what might replace the MSM if it dies.
Then where would we get our news, in order to dissect and discuss it as we do here in FR?
Maybe YouTube. Maybe Twitter. Maybe the internet in general, with individuals providing photos, videos, and eyewitness accounts, and some mechanism that will help sort it all out and bring the best stuff up to the top.
It’s too early to say. But if the MSM wants to commit suicide, then I think alternatives WILL appear to take its place.
