Yo @startrek, tell me something?

Do #trashy #tabloids exist in the #StarTrek universe? Does *any* #journalism whatsoever exist in the Star Trek universe?

Because, if not, then it means there are no Tucker Carlsons and no Jon Stewarts, and no John Olivers in that universe. Probably because nothing needs internal investigations in that society as a whole!

And that frankly blows my mind… 🤯

    There’s an episode where the crew is working an old-time print newspaper gig

    That one, Far beyond the stars is set around a 1950s editorial bullpen, but for a science fiction magazine. Not much news reporting going on there, sorry 🙂
