Controversy Erupts Over Citizen Journalism and Media Credibility
In recent weeks, a significant controversy has taken root in the media landscape, triggered by comments made by the CEO of Axus Media and subsequently addressed by Elon Musk. The CEO's animated outburst centered on the rise of citizen journalism and its implications for traditional news media.
The Meltdown
The Axus CEO expressed frustration, stating, "Everything we do is under fire," specifically referencing Musk's assertion that social media platforms like Twitter—now referred to as X—represent the new face of media. His comments sparked applause from the hosts of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, who shared in his outrage about how social media has altered perceptions of journalistic integrity.
