one big trend ive seen over the past three years from a growing number of those in tech is utter contempt for the media no industry is unilaterally good (even media!) but it is interesting to see influential tech types pass this hate down to the next gen of founders

This has two components: feeling the contempt, and expressing it openly. But both ultimately have the same cause. The quality of journalism has declined, and this has made journalists less powerful, which makes it safe to criticize them openly.

I think you’re getting it wrong. Prior to social media it was not possible to criticize journalism because no person could yell loud enough for the world to hear. You needed a newspaper. Today anyone with enough followers is a newspaper so we can criticize and compete with news.
