    My impression is that Slate has kept a little more dignity than The Atlantic in their pursuit of clicks. Atlantic still has some excellent oldtimers, but so much of their product now is obviously 20-something interns pounding out Intersectional Takes on autopilot.https://twitter.com/new_suburbanist/status/1039982591015710720 …

    When I was a teenager in the 90s, "The Atlantic Monthly" was considered a prestigious magazine that one dreamed of having their poems or short stories someday published in. Now "The Atlantic" is just another shitty Buzzfeed tier site.

        Right. Slate started with economist Herb Stein (economist/actor Ben Stein's dad) as their advice columnist, then Margo Howard, then the level-headed Emily Yoffe (who did good work on the Sabrina Rubin Erdely hoax). But now ...

        Almost all magazines are on autopilot. It's hard to come up with counter examples. @QuilletteM? Very few. Autopilot nonfiction and fiction across the board. But is there an audience for anything else? If so, they're silent .... or going somewhere else for their needs

        30-something with an elite liberal arts education speaking here, the sort of demographic who should be all over Atlantic, NPR, etc. I hang out on 4chan because it's both more intellectually stimulating AND more entertaining than any "respectable" magazine or website nowadays.

        I'd have to agree with you. And the chans don't censor words like social media and old time media do. When do you hear "illeg-l ali-n" used on NPR, or printed in the Atlantic? They're so grossly PC, it's not fun to read. Now we actually have to self-censor that word on Twitter!

        And it sucks because for the past 3 years I've kept trying to give places like The Atlantic, NPR, the NYT, etc a chance but they now all feel as sterile, safe, and fundamentally unsatisfying as reading all those free copies of USA today that they gave us in elementary school.

        They're dead. They don't matter at all. They probably have more readers of their twitter feeds than their articles. The future is elsewhere.

        And it's considerably more fun than the legacy media ever was. I'd say it's a win-win for people like us, though I can see why the folks running those establishments and their younger wannabes like BuzzFeed and Huffpo are all so terrified of what's coming.

        Eric Weinstein call this hermit crabs (journalists) crawling into the shells of organizations we think we know (CNN, NYT, NPR, The Atlantic, etc) and radically changing them.

        A paucity of effective business models and short audience attention spans have turned most news websites into clickbait headline generators.

        Conor Friedersdorf is well worth reading at the Atlantic
