Semafor is doing a “Restoring trust in news” event w Brendan Carr, who is single handedly trying to dismantle free speech and censor news organizations, and who is currently threatening a news radio station for reporting the news too specifically www.techdirt.com/2025/02/06/n...

Confession: I have been thinking way too much about this event and what’s wrong with it. In addition to including bad faith “news” folks it’s missing younger voices making or consuming news.

There’s no one addressing the huge destruction of audience and capital that happened when sites like Buzzfeed, Vox, HuffPost and QZ withered. Where did all those readers go? And journalists?
