Who woke the media up? Starmer takes 20 grand of gift vouchers and every outlet looses their minds. Johnson, Sunak, Truss all pocketed millions maybe even billions including the money their minions spaffed. Now I don't like Starmer but perspective here people. #churnalism
A decent point: "Two decades ago, newsroom bosses chose a business model of "churnalism" – getting reporters to fire out many stories a day with no original work..." And then: "Now technology has not just obsoleted the reporters but the bosses too – and even the readers." [SUBS PLEASE CHECK, RIP]
It’s just the Turner Prize for comedy - a low engagement chance for people to say their kid could do better - and it’s so dispiriting that these across-all-channels churnalism moments are the only time that fine art, or comedy as a form, gets talked about.
The complete antithesis of your new podcast - a very clever conversation between friends. The total opposite of cold ai churnalism.
This business about balance is a deliberate obfuscation. If the ABC has a talking head who is certain its daytime. The obvious journalistic response is not to provide a talking head with a contrary view. They should have a look out the window. Featuring so many vox pops is just lazy churnalism.
Should Our ABC promote a story of someone pleased to have a solar farm (as if) they would be to present the opposite view. The ABC descent into churnalism has been swift and is probably irreversible. It is a deliberate dumbing down desired in equal measure by all our fearless leaders.
Front page headline is "Govt says new plans won't reopen Foreshore and Seabed debate", to which the response is "oh yeah. And what do Māori think?" But we don't know yet, because the article doesn't interview any, just regurgitates the official PR #churnalism
As soon as there's a Muslim Woman to dump on out trot all the tired old hacks with their tired old churnalism.
CHURNALISM!
