You're missing the overwhelming rise of the civic (nonprofit) news movement that's aimed at providing free, accessible "local" journalism to towns, cities, counties and states cross the country.
Journalism hidden behind pay walls creates an inequity split in our society that will only make things worse and weaken communities going forward. There are hundreds and hundreds of nonprofit sites providing legitimate local journalism that didn't exist five years ago. This post seems to be missing a huge part of what's actually happening in the journalism industry in the U.S.
Instead of focusing on "rebooted" brands, perhaps start writing about the true journalism entrepreneurs who are focused on building legitimate news brands in their towns, cities and counties and not on those are concerned with being "influencers."
Your thinking seems very dated and you're missing the revolution that's going on in local journalism today.
