We have heard the term “fake news” all to often lately.

You may be saying, what does fake news have to do with cryptos/blockchain.?

Our citizens are starving for truth and no longer look to mainstream news as a reliable independent viewpoint anymore.

Enter — Blockchain Journalizm services of the future like the CIVIL platform where citizens around the world are the journalist.

Much like steemit platform, people will follow what you post and receive payment (like YouTube as well).

Imagine consumer photographs and stories holding big business and all accountable.

Will there be a fight against this and be “imperfect”? Of course, but what are the choices at this point?

Google , YouTube and Twitter are seen as judge and jury when it comes to content these days. So there will be systems that will just “go around them”.
Who know what will happen to Facebook in 10 years?

My take is cisitizen journalism will product a new group of people to read from —- it happens quite a bit with websites and videos today.

Imagine the future of journalism with the blockchain.

You have the tools and now thanks to ways to earn money, change is coming.

Sort:  

yes the journalists in the media is just reading the script, everyone can be the real journalists

I think the social media / news of today blew it with their agenda based ideology. Censorship will cost them in the long run.

Why not @bifilarcoil??

That person can be an example of reporting of the news cycle. Many people are analyzing what these news stations are reporting. They don’t believe them as much compared to 20 years ago where people in the US would believe the news reporters. There will be many people doing this on their own since they will be able to make money on it —- and people will look for good content.

Makes one hopeful, isn't it? For us in the "know"
Perhaps more and more will wake up and not just see rainbows, instead compare the news with realities and make them think.

there are some who are awake but not as many as one would hope.

Just wondering if there is timeline?

I really believe that trend is in full motion and news will always be under a microscope going forward.

Believingly so...what do you think @eaglespirit?

many and i mean many do not watch the news anymore. the ones who are brainwashed and repeating msm yes they obviously are but i guarantee you the majority are not.

I believe you are correct. It’s all going to come out in the wash why they are doing all that they are. Not good for them. Thank you

yup. since im
american, while i cant swear by the entire population i travel enough and talk to enpugh people to have a good idea.

Yes, a good reason for people to have a look at deepdives for instance.
Journalism is one hell of a task. But it indeed seems to offer some opportunities.

Blockchain news, could be to old news what MP3 was to the CD.

And that's why we now see the law makers working very hard for the main stream to push for rules to delay the inevitable 'big bang'.

Are we still alive by then? Either when..am up for it. The world is indeed waking up but very few still.

We live if we refuse their weapons more of us will live.
More then you expect are hearing the wake-up call but they are still way behind on knowledge. The corruption is everywhere.

Yeah..makes one wanna live in unheard forest. How do you like to join @eaglespirit's #freedomfriday about "freedom to carry bear arms"? Your knowledge will be very appreciated.☺

i'll have a look, thanks

will leave it to the more experienced🤣😂
