The most f**king frustrating thing about all this is that there are smart passionate engineers who truly give a shit about the media...
-
...they have been head down, pushing forward, in your newsrooms for a long time & get their projects, budgets, salaries given to 3rd parties
-
All the tools & people you need have been at hand, struggling for attention & money while you hand over your business to greedy amoral tech
-
People who work in the media mostly do b/c they Believe In Journalism. But ethics continues to not be a consideration in biz side of news.
-
You want to save journalism, you have to work with people who care about our ethics. Business, tech, it all has to flow from the newsroom.

Media needs to understand they *have value* & journalists need to see that & care about how they get paid. Chronotope/809877557646594048

In the land of media, the biz side and its tech is not sexy. But there's nothing sexier than getting paid and keeping your morals in order.
