Are there any American newspapers left that haven't turned into social media? They all seem to be:

  • Ads
  • Reprint quotes from rich people with no validation or verification
  • Reply guys
  • Ads
  • "Opinion" pieces
  • Reprints from other sources
  • Ads
  • Billionaire buy-outs to kill the platform
  • Ads

Even the local stuff generally doesn't have any investigative aspects anymore.

I know it's been this way for a while but I just now realized that they really are just legacy social media. And that's sad.

@cR0w ProPublica?
@r0k They're legit but to me a separate category of journalism, not necessarily "news."
