Agree. It's the digital analogy of the smokers circle. It was always bad for you, but now the filter is off.

The Texas Tribune blames its layoffs on a budget shortfall as revenue fell 5% in 2023 and public institutions pulled sponsorships; some blame leadership issues (Sarah Scire/Nieman Lab)

The Texas Tribune’s first-ever layoffs worry the news industry

Frustration over a lack of transparency has been amplified by the newsroom's status as "the gold standard of nonprofit journalism" and a role model other outlets have been encouraged to follow.

I chair a nonprofit local paper that is thriving through a sponsorship model, and growing over the last five years as compared to the Gannett alternative: thecurrentla.com. Focused on deep reporting, local govt accountability - It's a success story worth telling and replicating. It looks like local broadcast is starting to go the Gannett route as well with consolidation. Even folks who want to subscribe have no credible local high value options.

This is the last day of my Twitter account. I have over 52K followers there, but I can't remain on a platform that pays people like Andrew Tate to post. I do this knowing it significant limits my reach in the academic community, but the standard you walk past is the one you accept.
