Around 2016, we witnessed a transformation in the status of the alt-media. It, in many ways, became more powerful and numerous than the mainstream. The term "fake news" was coined to denote obviously false stories that had greater traction on Facebook than mainstream reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

Thus, it was the role of the alternative media to pursue the truth. The alt-media might very well get some things wrong, and it might be too tolerant towards cranks, but at least it was a place where truth-seeking (and not hegemonic narratives) held sway. — PolitiTweet.org

There are many causes of this transformation: most notably the the explosion and democratization of technology and social media; the general dumbing down of the public; and, to be fair, catastrophic moral and intellectual failures of mainstream institutions. — PolitiTweet.org
