Big Journalism failed miserably again during this election campaign.

Dan Gillmor

I fully expect it to fail the evening of Nov. 5, when "news" organizations will run and post live coverage of Trump declaring victory. That alone will be malpractice of the highest order.

Whatever happens in this election, one of my missions in the next few years will be to help rebuild honorable journalism in America.

But it'll have to be from the grassroots up, because the so called "mainstream media" can't be fixed.

With you Dan! Until we can wrest control of our media from the cluches of the billionaires, disinformation will continue to flourish and democracy is very much at risk.
