Though this is 8 years ago, these gentlemen are so sharp in defining new #journalism, that I'm going to watch this more than once, & keep it for future reference. We in #indiemedia need motivational references like these, to meditate, & conceptualize on.

#indiemedia is like a hobby to me online, & I'm developing my own news service here in the #Caribbean, centered on #Twitter & now KZbin, plus adding Haitian Kreyol translation capabilities, to my Spanish translation service. And now everything seems to be merging, with the impending military intervention in #Haiti, which also thanks to my military background, our #indiemedia will be able to cover/analyze from our side of #Hispaniola. Timing helps plus intellectual curiosity on the way.

(BuzzFeed Lays Off Dozens of HuffPost Staffers, Site Lost More Than $20M Last Year) When you bet on Millenials you will always be disappointed. Get woke, go broke... How many multi-billion dollar bets were placed on new media outlets that are now gone or basically hemorrhaging money & worthless shells? One good point they make, read books or watch TV, it's a better choice. -March 9, 2021
