The collapse of western journalism. I should say that overtly commercialized media is just a prop.
Nobody who's looking for good coverage of anything should be reading / watching CNN anyway. The last 10-odd years have proven that all the major privately owned US networks are just total slop.
Seriously - pretty much every single TV news network in the US is just a constant flow of editorialized garbage and shoddy journalism. It's more than a little depressing to consider that millions of people base their their view of politics on it.
