I'm with you on the digital revolution, it's the lack of journalism I can't face

Giving Twitter the bird: columnist argues that its users don’t gather news.

This story looks into how the newspaper is a dying platform. This also looks into how social media isn't really journalism as it would just react and report from other sources.

In my opinion, I would agree with this statement as social media is just an easier platform for people to access the news. However there isn't much journalism as newspapers are now being credited in the article. This isn't rewarding for the actual journalists wouldn't be rewarded for their reporting in comparison to those who share the story on social media.
