News Is Trending

An interesting story in the Washington Post shows a new trend on social media.

The trend is “news.”

Talent and stations using Instagram to post dancing videos and selfies are missing what's trending on the platform. NEWS is the hot new trend, except it's presented in a different style.

Some forward-thinking journalists have left mainstream organizations to present news in their unique voices.

Most of the "news" on these platforms is presented by "creators." They are racking up millions of views and raking in substantial revenues.

While TV news people are busy posting selfies and dance videos, content creators are posting news stories and making money.

People like Phillip DeFranco are making major bank, beating Journalists at their own game.
