Having trouble gauging if this is sarcasm or not. What the world needs is more long form journalism, not less. We are dying in soundbites and lack of nuance. Most of us don’t have more *real*, worthy, things to do, just more things. A sort of noise masquerading as value.
More generally, 'longform journalism' -- a tedious hybrid of 'human interest', faux-sociological trend-spotting, Googled factoids, and ideological narcissism -- has no place in a civilized society where readers have things to do and places to be.https://twitter.com/CaitlinPacific/status/1035562761403551745 …

Couldn't agree more. What a strange thing to read from
@primalpoly whose tweets I usually respond to positively. Maybe the word 'journalism' had too much negative baggage for him right now. If length equates to depth and nuance, why is that a problem?
