CNN senior media reporter Oliver Darcy just can’t seem to understand why that might be the case:

—@JohnStossel seems to think its great that people are getting their news from YouTubers vs reliable news organizations https://t.co/sYypDYftCU

I’m curious what you mean when you say reliable news organization

in the general sense, I'm referring to news organizations that have a traditional structure comprised of reporters, editors, fact-checkers, etc. Could be local news radio, tv, newspapers… list goes on and on!

No offense, Oliver, but CNN’s “traditional structure” hasn’t exactly yielded “reliable” journalism lately.
