It sucks that journalism has to compete and be marketable even if that means that really isn't a viable option for the type of coverage they're doing. Even when looking at some "edger" media like Vice that have interesting stories, but till have to compete for a demographic that dictates them. I wish we could have more NPR and PBS esq. local journalism that was independent enough as a nonprofit, but because they do get some money from the government they can stay afloat in the current climate without having to sacrifice quality.
