@3967703f part of what I’m seeing as well is the lack of real useful news as well.  Newsrooms have been replaced by AI, bots, whatever you want to call them.  
When national news outlets started using stories they found on Twitter, Breitbart, Apple News they lost me.  
The loss of newspapers, where you can slowly absorb an article is a tragedy. Private Equity just bought them all up and cut them all up..
