re: #136 Anymouse 🌹

Like the Bergen County Record on the so-called Bridgegate scandal, or the reporters on a minor (at the time) insignificant break-in at a famous Washington hotel, I’m guessing there is more than one reporter that is looking at every angle of the Russia story and the corruption story and thinking “There’s a Pulitzer Prize in this for me.”

I’m not ready to give up on the press just yet. Perhaps it will be Lauren Duca of Teen Vogue. (That would also have the knock-off effect of embarrassing the crap out of the media into doing its job, perhaps.)

I seriously question whether investigative journalism can survive in the modern era where any coverage is immediately overtaken by the status of Beyonce’s children or what a Kardashian said on Twitter.
