  There has always been true journalists, and it seems there are periods where groups become more prominent in waves, but, at least from the many news papers I have read from that time, from the US, Canada, and the UK it was all corporate voice, and extremely ham fisted government propaganda. I can’t tell you how many ads I have seen for over consumption, especially of questionable shit, with the US government calling for being a real American, or whatever, that buys this American product. Write-ups about military actions, especially ones with natives, that are basically just fabricated stories about brave christian soldiers protecting innocent homesteaders from the savages. When I first started looking these up I was kinda surprised at how bad it was actually, and I was expecting pretty much the same. The biggest thing I noticed was that there was a LOT more long form article 200 years ago. However they, like today, were largely industry/political puff pieces, socialite blather, etc.

  Also, the amount of casual libel in century plus old news papers is insane. Absolutely would not fly today.

  Have you ever read newspapers from the 19th or 18th centuries? Cause I have bad news for you about the history of journalism.

  my personal view of this is that, as phones became something people were on all the time, regardless of what they happened to be doing, more people started using speaker because they are often doing multiple things at once, or need to pay better attention to what is happening around them. I believe that hands free units in cars have also played a part normalizing just using speaker phone, especially when needing to pay attention to what is happening around them in public.

  I still go to the recipes, and skip over the fluff. I have found numerous errors in AI summaries of recipes when they are anything but very well know, common, ones.
