Fake news and woke opinions delivered as facts have killed digital journalism, not the free market.

People who write for Buzzfeed are not and have never been journalists. In my opinion, people who write for The Guardian barely qualify. learntomine

“Despite a year of horrible publicity, from being blamed for contributing to genocide in Myanmar to a series of scandals around data and privacy, Facebook’s business appears as strong as ever.”

It's not free market that kills jobs, but lack of originalality,

Free market kills activists pretending to be journalists

Damn I'm going to miss such quality 'journalism' from Buzzfeed with articles like '15 hedgehogs with things that look like hedgehogs' '10 signs your cat is a wizard' and '11 delightful poems found in pornhub comments'. Bless the freemarket. LearnToCode 🤣

Wtf I love the free market now.

It's hard to pay for news when it's free. Maybe they should all go nonprofit and start asking for donations instead, like NPR.

not only the digital ones

People are not really interested in truth now and being serious is too old fashion. Eventually we'll be informed by only the ministry of truth aka fb

What it tells me is nobody is willing to pay to read highly subjective and opinionated pish! Guardian being a prime example!

No, pathological lying, rage baiting, and the Gross incompetence and inability to do basic fact checking is what kills what passes for 'journalism' theses days.

This from the EU gloablist bell-shiners. You couldn't write it... Oh wait!

Ha!. That's a shame. I will miss The Independent. Hmmm!.

I guess nothing to do with all the fake news they published then? Setting a mob on kids? Racist journos with Trump derangement syndrome? Attacking 50% of their potential readership daily? 😂😂

Lmaoooo

The free market kills everything big the miniscule minority who profit from it.

But who's going to go outside for us when the weather is horrible?

Or they were funded weirdly to being with.....

Lol
