Former editors, media experts and independent journalists have been going after mainstream US media hard this summer .

They are responding to how the behemoths of the industry seem intent on bending the facts to fit their agendas.

They pursue the appearance of fairness and balance by treating the true and the false, the normal and the outrageous, as equally valid.

They neglect, again and again, important stories with real consequences.

Rebecca Solnit : It’s hard to gloat over the decline of the dinosaurs of American media, when a free press and a well-informed electorate are both crucial to democracy.

Solnit says the alternatives to the major news outlets simply don’t reach enough readers and listeners.

A host of brilliant journalists young and old, have started independent newsletters covering tech, the state of the media, politics, climate, reproductive rights and virtually everything else.
