David Wallace Wells' "Somnolent, Self-Involved Cluelessness" A Proxy For Journalism's Utter Failure
?t=109
David Wallace-Wells realized in 2016 that Climate change is a huge story.
Im a journalist, Im an editor mostly..
Just in 2016 started seeing a lot more of the news from science, was about climate, and a lot more of that climate news was really scary.
We hadnt had any storytelling, we hadnt had any discussion of what the world would look like north of 2 degrees...
and I just felt, ,
As a journalist, I was like, holy shit theres a huge story here.. Like, the way that this world could be completely transformed by these forces, is not something that anyone is writing about..
Really? Thanks David.
Your description of your own somnolent, self-involved cluelessness sort of crystallizes the most massive journalistic failure in history.
