It’s too bad theres no kind of “truth in labeling” enforcement over the term NEWS. Most of the stuff labeled as news these days is actually opinion, or paid advertisements.
The FTC and FCC could probably pay off the national debt in the US just from these fines alone.
I listen to the Up First podcast every morning. Then I see what I see while doom scrolling lemmy. That’s pretty much it.
My wife leaves MSNBC on just about all day long, and it’s rare she mentions anything I don’t already know about.

Exactly. That’s it in a nutshell. It’s literally an inferior medium of getting news. I’d be careful telling your wife that, though 😉
Any suggestions?
Get the writers guild together and reform the ap
Why would the writers guild have anything to do with actual news?
Why would writers… have anything to do with writing?
The writers guild is for things like TV shows and movies. Not journalism.
From the WGA site:
Our primary duty is to represent our members in negotiations with film and television producers to ensure the rights of screen, television, and digital media writers.
I found this specific information from 5 minutes in a search engine, you could have too.
I also found this which is probably more like what you intended:
No, I meant the writers guild.
OK, you have a nice day. I’m out.
News 2: electric Boogaloo
They haven’t even release News 2 yet.
I think that would be a good idea. People clearly prefer to learn the news differently tk how they used to. You might say it’s gone through 3 stages
- Newspapers
- Radio and Television introduced, Newspapers still popular
- Internet makes Twitter/Reddit a more efficient way to locqte articles, and people don’t need to tune in tk scheduled news when they have YouTube videos, for instance.
One of my favourite news sources right now is TLDR news. ,aybe stuff like the BBC needs to get their programming more in-line with this, allowing people to select the stories they listen to qnd thus spend less time watching/ listening to the news.
news is gay
The world or are you referring to the news communities of lemmy?
US perspective?
Social Media is the reboot.
Then cancel the franchise.
Ugh, just cancel them and let them die already.
