Irene Jackson reflects on the challenges of misinformation, the importance of trustworthy journalism, and the need to preserve local news.
What was curious to me was that my daughter knew about it before I did. I’m a news junkie myself and usually start my day reading the paper and perusing news websites.She told me that one of her coworkers saw the story on Facebook in a community called What The Hell Just Happened. Well, that was news to me.When I was a kid , there was radio and there was television. And, of course, there were newspapers. Radio would have more up-to-the-minute news, usually at the top of the hour.
When our family got a television sometime in the 60s, the news was something you watched at around 6 p.m. every night. So as it turned out, you didn’t know about a lot of events that had happened in the rest of the world until that time. These days, we have tweets and videos immediately after, or right at the moment of something happening.
Sadly, the trend these days appears to be fewer and fewer traditional sources, especially of local news. Smaller newspapers are shutting down everywhere, and television and radio stations are disappearing off their respective “dials.”
