To me, the harshest reality of legacy media's slow walk to obvious bankruptcy is: If their journalists were actually good at breaking news, journalism, or had interesting things to say on opinion columns, they’d make way more money going independent—via X, YouTube, Substack, etc.—than rotting at the Washington Post. It's why they all eventually become mouthpieces for different government factions.
