MAIN STREAM MEDIA : DEMISE PRECIS

 

Another significant development, to many and too !WOW!'s great chagrin, is the gradual but total demise of the mainstream media.

Take the examples of India and the US : there is no correlation between punditry and political outcomes. The mainstream media seems to have lost all credibility in the face of a twin onslaught from charged social media and AI.

These edifices still exist but are marked for demolition. My money is on the early demise of CNN.

In our region, where global trends take their sweet time to arrive, media outlets enter zombie mode, going through routine motions while knowing the consumer's attention left the building long ago.
