Employees of failing media corporations (or even the few thriving giants: NYT/WP) tell themselves the same tale: Independent journalists succeed only because they don't do "real journalism," even though these bitter employees break no stories while their targets break many. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the top Substack writers passed through big media institutions. But almost all - including ones I can't stand on the substance - built their own organic audiences from scratch and maintained them over the years. Very few corporate employees can do this, hence the rage. https://t.co/YUSCy2FBwu — PolitiTweet.org

But at the end of the day, what's going on is simple. Being an employee of a media giant is miserable. The public hates and distrusts them. They do no fulfilling work and have nothing original to say (and aren't allowed to even if they had). They know their relevance is gone. — PolitiTweet.org
