Media is dead. Or at least the real media. Now, they all sort of fall into the same bucket. When I went to journalism school and then started my career as a reporter, journalism was a great career to consider. Now, it's all about click bate ...catchy headlines ... and resorting to using Tweets instead of quotes ... Sensationalism is here to stay and now the mainstream media bought into it because they sort of had to ... When TMZ becomes the main source of breaking news in this country ... well ... that sort of captures where we are at as a society
