This is a great piece from a variety of different angles. And to your point, I can absolutely confirm old guard media heads have no idea what is happening right now - at least at the local level.

The economic model of the traditional media doesn't work any more. They have no future. Any ambitious young writer knows they are better off building a newsletter or Substack because there is no future for them in the traditional media. This means these traditional brands are stuck. They can't hire great talent, so they resort to clickbait, trying to make things work in the short term because there is no long term for them.
