New media vs MSM

It is however the users want to use it.
It's not a news app. It's a bunch of users posting about their interests.

Especially when the goal of "independent journalists" on the platform relying more on impressions than they are about the accuracy of their "news".

This is why every fucking thing people post starts with "🚨BREAKING".....they aren't interested in a story.

I admit, I use it to see breaking stories worth looking at, but the news I get from it are from news sites, who have actual journalists doing actual journalism.

And yes, as flawed as that may be, there are not a ton of actual reporting going on in that tool.

Blah, blah, blah. It's how it's used, PERIOD.

If you want to interact with people of influence you go to X, not lit, not FB, not TikTok.

Yep. .people believe it is a news site

Which is why people believe stupid shit.

So your entire post is that your site is more popular than mine.


Lol...yah, we're not discussing the same thing.

And that just adds into my argument.

My entire post? I didn't start this thread, I just acknowledge the fact that X has soared in popularity in the EU. I started a thread essentially addressing the same subject yesterday. It is also a fact that real people of political influence in the US hang out on X and I have no reason so believe the same isn't true in the EU.

I was responding to your specific words in your specific posts.

My point was more that the popularity of X for news, which isn't a news*****, is not a good thing.

You reinforced that point.
