Fall of Newspapers, Rise of Misinformation | 60 Minutes Full Episodes

From 2013, Morley Safer's report on the New Orleans Times-Picayune newspaper's transition to a three-day-a-week publishing schedule in response to competition from the internet. From 2022, Jon Wertheim's report on local newsrooms being gutted by financial firms. From 2021, Scott Pelley's interview with a Facebook whistleblower who said the social media giant was misleading the public on progress against hate speech, violence and misinformation. And from March of this year, Lesley Stahl's report on efforts to combat the spread of misleading information on social media.

[@PeacefulPariah]

I mean, dude, newspapers have always been an ad sales business. The news is just to draw eyes to the ads and make ad space more valuable. This has been the case for hundreds of years. The more legitimate and trustworthy a pub's news, the higher likelihood that more people will depend on it for info. A publisher, (the big boss) was always focused on ads but they also took pride in their publication's content. It not only repped them, but usually, it repped a specific region in which they called home. As the venture capitalist scoops up these pub's like marbles, the publisher's are fired or they simply become a puppet for the venture capitalist. On top of that, nobody reads anymore. And nobody takes the time to do independent reporting, bc there is no emphasis to do so. The story is reported once on Twitter, and a nation of reporters parrot that story, without verification or assurance of objectivity. The ads are not the problem, how else would the newsroom get paid? Circulation breaks even.

Bit of a sweeping generalization... Once a day papers are "mainstream" news and are generally a trustworthy source if the paper has a strong editorial desk. 24 hour news on TV on the other hand.... These places have gone WAY downhill. You can only deliver base facts for so many hours until people stop watching, so that is when the facts stop, and emotional manipulation starts.

I worked in the corporate office for MediaNews Group MNG aka DigitalFirst Media, Alden's subsidiary and the actual owner (on paper) of all these newspapers. I assisted with the technical demands required during mergers, acquisitions, and divestitures. Alden was cutthroat. They simply do not give a f*ck. Y office was not immune to cuts, as most of us were hanger-ons from The Denver Post or even The Rocky Mountain News, a fabulous newspaper that had countless Pulitzer's. I would witness these secretaries who had been with a publication for 40 years get unceremoniously dismissed with a couple months of severance, maybe. The destruction of these mid-market newspapers has had awful effects for the country; indeed, the rise in polarization and the decline of local newspapers is not just some coincidence. Alden Cap is the face of greed. It is everything that is toxic about Capitalism, and is none of the good things. Revenue growth, ideally should (eventually) result in a need for a bigger workforce. Not in this situation; it's the opposite. IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE THIS WAY.

[@atanacioluna292]

It does, if Alden did not do it someone else would. The property is worth more for it's bones than for its life. It's not right but it's our American reality today. I'm writing a book on how to fix it.

[@WorldNewsThisWeek]

The difference in quality between the first story (shot in 2013 by legend Morley Safer) and the second story (from 2022), tells you everything you need to know about the decline of journalism. The first is interesting, nuanced, thought provoking, relatable, balanced, just a concise report of what's happening. Second is alarmist, slow, predictable, with most interviewees sounding like out of touch idealists complaining.

Information is necessary. However, someone used Social Media to incite violence, and they continue.

[@laurastabell2489]

Yes but hate speech against an individual or group is bullying. Its a sign of brain damage and shows a need for mental health help. Its due to neurological processing disorders causing feelings of irritability when confronted with different looks, ideas etc.. Thinking hurts people who are brain damaged making them angrily lash out. We are now seeing the legacy from Lead poisoning from gasoline just like in the past when Lead was put into wine. We can clearly see and guage that we are neurologically in trouble as a nation. Just look at the behavior in political leaders especially in Congress. Its a symptom of a neurological problem. Thats probably why the word "Civilization" contains the word "Civil" . Without civility you cant have civilization. When things became non- civil, civilization was at risk of ending. There is a huge difference between hate group bullying and targeting tactics and the civil discourse that is "free speech". We need free discussion of ideas without potentially psychopathic loud mouthed control seekers taking the podium away from others by bullying, brow beating, ganging or hate group tactics. Without "civil"discourse and those who will fight for civility, we are undone. Those who seek to create and use hate and division for power are the enemy of civilization. Their followers may also be victims of neurological damage. LEAD the metal and lead are the same word for a reason. First you Lead poison them, then you lead them by their emotions and hyperintense feelings. Its much easier to lead people who are dumbed down or unsure. We need to remember the country was founded as a haven for different people who were escaping from "same" control people and their enforced sameness. They pulled together DESPITE DIFFERENCES by promoting CIVIL DISCOURSE. United we stand! Divided we fall.

Because engagement algorithms push all the craziest people into your feed. Giving people the impression that the world is full of crazies, when it is actually just a tiny amount of people.

So we all know corporations are in business to make money. That is not in question given our economic system. Generally speaking, those corporations do something that is useful for somebody. That's generally how they make that money. If the corporation goes away, the thing that was useful also goes away as an externality. Where I have a problem with vulture hedge funds is that the usefulness of the product is compromised and everyone suffers. The fact that people can make money by undermining the usefulness of services that people rely upon makes me think our economic system is not ideal. Maybe there are some services that would be better handled by the public sector to ensure the useful and necessary work is done Rather than opening struggling businesses up to vultures.

At 60, I get all my news on YT basically. I can see news from around here World without the American biases. I can pick and choose what I choose to put in my head. I get local news from a Senior newsletter email, and basically my local city council requesting voters on certain subjects, basically taxes. But I am a very engaged reader. Much more so than when I was a working person, unfortunately. When I was working, I enjoyed the Sunday papers mostly, and sadly admit that I looked at the entertainment and sales sections mostly. I don’t like that the Fourth Estate is dwindling in America. You can’t even blame it on parties or foreign conspiracies. It is the result of the wealthy 1% whom couldn’t give a NYC Rat King’s a$$ about Truth, justice, or Americans in general who are not on their board or one of their investors. THAT is the state of the capitalist society today. In foreign countries, it usually requires a radical turnover in Leadership often by revolutionary and violent forces. This^ is the result of greed: pure & simple. The owners of these corporations buying out newspapers are so completely insulated on a global scale individually as well as corptocracies that they truly have no investment in the Nation as a stabilizing force in the world. The individual members and their families can just jump ship and move to their private islands. They can continue to enjoy access to their bank accounts in Panama, Switzerland, Cypress and other foreign countries, and probably in Hong Kong as well. Not that this diatribe will even make an impression on the tL;dr generation who get most of their answers and opinions from Reddit and Quora( with 0 oversight from researchers and fact checkers because the answers are crowd sourced). Im not going to influence the FB group nor their rowdy red percent - they exist in a sound silo, and aren’t even interested in another opinion. They weren’t very literate (comprehension wise) BEFORE 2015, and they weren’t very informationally literate either (“informationally” - is that a word?). I am just an old woman yelling at clouds. 🌧️

Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Corinthians 15:3-4 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.

I'd like to modernize 60 Minutes as one of its youngest hosts ever. Leaving this comment for future reference.

Croc tears. Get tf on par where people are and how they want to read news. If you fall behind seems your issue.

I started my graphic design career in the newspaper 🗞️ business. I have worked for newspapers in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ventura CA, Lake Tahoe CA/NV and Carson City NV. I got out when it was beginning to fold in 2007 before my job was cut. Been self employed since then but over the last year I have been creating more digital newsletters for clients. News still coming out but in a new self publishing kind of way.

Wanting to hear from both sides I subscribed to Cleveland’s Plain Dealer for 25+ years. Slanted and incomplete reporting of facts drove me away. Propaganda.

Constant lying. Calling the truth misinformation. There's the answer in a few words. People aren't as stupid as you think. And the ones that are, are already watching this crud.

What’s a newspaper?

[@kornpop6932]

Who gets to decide what is true and what is misinformation? This is why free speech is essential.

[@fastcharger3314]

Facts decide the truth that’s why they call it investigative reporting. 🙈

[@Novastar.SaberCombat]

Science, data, evidence, and logic. The trouble is, mankind is FAR more interested in their "beliefs" than they are any of those silly things.

[@kornpop6932]

@@Novastar.SaberCombat Additionally and unfortunately… there is another trouble here. That is when you discover that the people in charge of those findings have skewed the data, gaslighted the public and created distrust around the globe 🌎.

Don't fight progress. Just move good journalism to the web. Stop wasting trees.

[@07Flash11MRC]

Agreed. I don't see what the problem is. Most past news papers are already on the internet and use the internet as a source anyway.

[@MrRich504]

Does this title imply that the newspaper didn’t provide misinformation

[@yannkitson116]

More than likely it does, but the correct understanding should probably be: The Rise of Non-Governmental Controlled Misinformation.

[@Wildrover82]

Exactly my thoughts.

[@gj8683]

"Rise of Misinformation" does not imply that newspapers have been free of it.

[@SteveninTune]

Yes it's all propaganda so like the Republicans banning books it's against the law to read the paper.❤
