Part 7/11:
De Anastasio and others openly criticized the shift away from traditional journalism, viewing the rise of YouTubers and online content creators as a direct consequence of mainstream outlets' failures. She claimed that reactionary YouTubers are "eating away" at journalism's share, despite many commenters pointing out that most YouTubers lack proper journalistic training and are often just informal enthusiasts.
This sentiment underscores a broader narrative: the decline of traditional outlets is perceived by some as symptomatic of their failure to adapt and serve the needs of modern audiences.
