datzenmike Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 That Vox mag is total garbage. Never turn to fashion experts for polical advice. I'll never vote for Trump but can respect decent journalism. Journalism, make that good journalism, died out with the growth of the internet. When there were just radio and newspapers the journalistic cream rose to the top and few editors picked only the best from the many who proved over time to be truthful, correct and to the point. Is there good journalism out there yes, I think so.... but less and less than there used to be. Now everyone with a computer outlet can freely express their opinion from tin foil hat to pithy, lies to truth and we are deluged in a shit tsunami of rhetoric. It's like one voice shouting in a crowd of 50,000 spectators at a football game. Just look at some of the truly shit examples posted here, including my own. I never read the paper any more. The last true journalists and newspapers last published in the '80s. You are better served by your memory of past events about a candidate than to read a newspaper account about them. 2 Link to comment
paradime Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Unfortunate, but true Mike. I started my photography career as a stringer at the SF Chronicle. I wanted to believe in the journalistic integrity of the Chronicle, but I'd cover events, and see one of my images being used to support a fucked up, subjective POS article. Case in point, I was one of two press photographers on the Bay Bridge when protester's shut it down during the lead up to the Gulf War. There were huge number of people who overwhelmed the SF cops, and they made it halfway across the Western span before being stopped by Oakland PD. Once the protesters were stopped though, they peacefully stood their ground and held out until the crowd was broken up from the SF side. The article that was written describe it as violent, and angry clashes between OPD and radical SF protesters. Absolute BS, but ostensively "substantiated" by eye witnesses. I was there right in front, and there were no violent clashes what so ever. The only people arrested were those who sat down and would not leave on their own, and they were taken into custody by SF cop, not OPD. The article left those details out completely, but I had NO SAY in how my images were used. Totally disillusioned by the blatant twisting of facts, that was the last day I submitted images to the Chronicle. That was 26 years ago. 5 Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Yeah about '90. Before that, papers would have feared someone would have found out and said something and they would have been caught in the lie. A paper would never have knowingly fed the public BS and the worst was to print a retraction. The equivalent of eating a plate of warm shit. But not any more. The only paper readers are those who eat all that shit daily. There simply are no consequences for anything these days. Link to comment
RatVonDude Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 I really miss that 1980's style of journalism that doesn't resort to high priesthood commentary unrelated to subject all together. Its almost like the jokes and criticism are left out intentionally. Internet political writers are to wrapped up in there own bullshit of ill fitted psycho-anali-tics, backed by self approved degree in crackpot western philosophy. “Entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily” – William of Ockham here's one for you 1 Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Just like in the movie, the "news" division has been seized by the entertainment division at the networks. I used to refer to the ABC News as the Yuck Yuck channel. 2 Link to comment
angliagt Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 I also miss Herb Caan's column - he got things done in SF! Unfortunate, but true Mike.
