the influencer vs journalism thing is so goofy because everything digital journalists said now print said 20 years ago and just as digital journalists learned ethics the hard way so are influencers now.
the real problem is influencing is not nearly as easy or sustainable a job and lacks union protections and is more prone to exploitation—similar to digital 15 years ago.
the race to journalism’s financial bottom will continue but it won’t be either the influencer or the journalist’s fault.
