not to get too closer to VEEP than we already areโ€ฆ but democrats SHOULD embrace a Clean Jobs plan. Paid training leading to high-paying, high-skill jobs. All while increasing our renewable energy output. Hit all 50 states, public-private-and-university partnerships, how isnโ€™t this our biggest thing?

While I don't follow many journalists there, I don't really follow many people. About 85-90% of the content I consume is what the algorithm feeds me (which is a larger issue).

BUT - what do I see? CBS, BBC, NBC, AP, WaPo, NYT, just to name a few. While I don't follow them, I consume their content

TikTok users rely on content creators โ€” not journalists โ€” for news More Americans are flocking to TikTok for news, but they aren't necessarily following media organizations or journalists on the platform.

This Axios piece on a Pew Study made the rounds this year - while it's an interesting look at news is consumed, Pew dangerously misunderstands how people (esp. among Gen-Z) use the app.

Anecdotally, many Gen-Z's scroll their FYP, not who they actually follow (1/?)

People are skeptical of TikTok and the way that it has influenced consumption of media and news. I've found it to be educational, depending on who you watch.

Keds-economist popped up on my FYP shortly after the election, and her videos have been incredible! Highly recommend post-election
