“Post-journalism essentially is the idea that journalism commodifies polarization,” says former CIA media analyst Martin Gurri.
Instead of seeking objectivity and broad appeal to the general public, media seek to become a refuge for a subset of the population: “a temple of ideology” for people who share the same worldview, Gurri argues.
"If you take the Russia story where [Trump] was supposed to have been basically Vladimir Putin's agent, [the New York Times] published at least 3,000 (by my estimate) stories on Trump being manipulated by the Russians. … They got millions and millions of subscribers because of that,” Gurri says.
He’s the author of the “The Fifth Wave” Substack column and author of “The Revolt of the Public and the Crisis of Authority in the New Millennium.”
In this episode, we dive into the radical transformation of the media and information ecosystems.
