"It will probably be all video."
In June 2016, Nicola Mendelsohn, Facebook's VP for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, spent several minutes of a panel at a Fortune conference talking about how Facebook was witnessing video overtake text.

Politico editor-in-chief John Harris has spent nearly three-and-a-half decades in American political journalism, building a reputation as a fair and principled reporter and, perhaps more important, helping to create a media organization that wields significant influence in Washington while commanding the respect of both Democrats and Republicans. So when Harris became a target of conservative criticism because of a tweet that the Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel described as "offensive" and "an example of why distrust in the media is at an all-time high," it left a few of his staffers feeling disappointed and perplexed.

Scott Fowler waited years for this moment: a chance to question the incarcerated "hit man" in a slaying that put NFL player Rae Carruth behind bars.
Fowler was able to extend his one-hour prison interview to a wild 3 1/2-hour conversation. The problem?
"The tape is horrible, through double-pane glass with a grate at the bottom," said Fowler, a Charlotte Observer reporter who suddenly had to think audio for a seven-part series and seven-episode podcast.

Journalism is suffering from some pretty big trust issues right now. It's a problem not unique to the United States, but increasingly a concern in places like the UK, Australia, France and Italy.
