Partly it's the business model (ad model), partly ethics and morals in the news aggregation, analysis and opinions.
But there's another aspect that's relevant which is information sourcing. Where the real news is and how they are told. I touch that as well.
Now, it's broken. Twitter used to be the place for everyone to share what they see if they find themselves in the middle of current events.
We don't have a place for that at the moment. The info sources are gone.
