What was said
"I can't imagine a time when it's been more important, and I can't imagine a time in my life when I've seen it do less. Major news organizations have been gobbled up by billionaires, and they're not doing shit to cover really important issues."
Veteran investigative journalist George Knapp delivered a scathing critique of mainstream journalism, stating that corporate consolidation under billionaire ownership has caused major outlets to abandon critical reporting. Knapp, recently called 'one of the last great journalists in America' by Rep. Burleson, argued journalism has 'rolled over and played dead' on important stories affecting everyday Americans.
