twitch stream/YouTube channel/podcast

I honestly think these things are the modern equivalent of the newspaper. In many cases reaching many more people. The issue however is pace of content production doesn't match print whatsoever. Several of these should have drastically expanded their operations using extra income that they don't personally need in order to produce content at the kind of rate it deserves. But instead of expanding the operation many are just pocketing it like every independent streamer is.

the WSJ should be writing articles about how ad revenue from Bad Empanada and 500 other youtube channels is arming third worldists; but instead they are just armchair quarterbacking AES countries.

Yeah even non political stuff from the left would be great. Nothing like listening or watching a video before realizing the creator is a bit of a libertarian and therefore everything coming out of their mouth is probably infantile nonsense lmao
