The biggest value of a newsroom to me isn’t simply delivering headlines, it’s having vetted non-biased experts who can contextualize the headlines and vet the veracity of statements.

Community organization is great for disseminating news and localizing relevant headlines, but it’s not the same as investigative reporting or well researched opinion pieces.

No more speaking truth to power?

I mean, we all know that citizen journalists on social media are becoming the major news source for people. The problem is about how you control the low quality information from a masses of people who don’t talk to experts and only share sensational stories that may or may not be true.
