#283: Do We Still Need Journalists In Metal?!

About this episode

In episode 283 of Heavy Metal Philosophy, Jon Barbas analyzes why metal media, and media more broadly, are contracting. Do we even still need print journalists now that we have content creators, influencers, and short-form content? Recently, a lot of metal magazines like Metal Injection, Metal Sucks, Brooklyn Vegan, and more experienced massive layoffs. Are these media layoffs the end of music journalism, or will influencers fill the void? Is that a good thing? Let's analyze why this happened and what the effects will be, and let me know what you think!
