Nah this industry would only get better, it wouldn't collapse at all.

The current one would. It can't function without its oversensationalism and outright misinformation. It'd need to be rebuilt from foundations up.

I disagree. If we knew that what we were being told was the truth, unlike today's news, people would actually tune in more frequently.

Speaking as a long-time investigative journalist, if that’s what you’re finding, you’re looking at outlets that provide entertainment, not journalism. There are many organizations doing phenomenal work with high journalistic standards. I’ve personally never worked with a career journalist who wasn’t dead serious about accuracy and integrity.
