RE: STEEMIT NEEDED: Corporate Media is MISSING STORIES by Focusing on Nonsense
And with mainstream media, it's not going to change any time soon. Profit comes solely from clicks and drawing eyeballs to gloss over ads. A system like Steemit's that actually aligns interests between media and people trying to stay informed has been needed for a while, and it feels like we finally have one.
Yes the click bait industry will last a very long time. Probably at least 10 more strong years. These larger media companies have so much influence over other people. When people start to think for themselves we will start to see extremely exciting things happen. And it's happening more all the time. It was inevitable to happen when we empower people with these powerful devices we call phones.
But I believe more that people will live inside their own universe more than be hooked into 1 big country eco system. Especially now with VR headsets getting more popular. People will design their own life more exactly the way they want it to be. Stay informed about all will be impossible since more information is being created daily in exponential curves.
