An award-winning citizen journalist, Andy is everything corporate media pretends to be: intellectually curious, relentless, and courageous. He\u2019s suffered brutal beatings, death threats, and constant harassment from the Antifa political terrorists simply for daring to report on their violence. The threats follow him wherever he goes. I experienced this first hand earlier this fall, when Common Sense Society and The Virginia Council hosted him at our inaugural Virginia Forum, and we were forced to relocate when&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/multiple-venues-cancel-journalism-event-featuring-andy-ngo-after-doxxing-bullying-antifa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">two venues in a row caved<\/a>&nbsp;to Antifa\u2019s threats of violence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You\u2019d think the legacy media would rally to the defense of a brave journalist like Andy Ngo. You\u2019d think they\u2019d use their perch to decry the \u201cdeath of free journalism.\u201d He is, after all, one of them\u2014and intimidation, violence, or censorship against one is supposedly a danger to the freedoms of them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They haven\u2019t spoken up, of course. And that\u2019s not surprising, given their sharp turn from the principles they espouse. It doesn\u2019t fit \u201cthe narrative,\u201d in which only \u201cdeplorable\u201d Americans commit insurrection or spread disinformation. The warriors for racial justice and social equity, on the other hand, conduct \u201cmostly peaceful\u201d protests\u2014and all for good reason, of course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Austin Stone&nbsp;is the chief operating officer of&nbsp;Common Sense Society.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the full article at <em><a href=\"https:\/\/townhall.com\/columnists\/austin-stone\/2023\/11\/17\/how-the-new-yellow-journalism-is-destroying-itself-and-laying-the-seeds-for-a-new-citizen-journalism-n2631292#google_vignette\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Townhall<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fourth Estate need not die\u2013it could change, getting smaller, more local, and by it, more responsible to its readers. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":21,"featured_media":3079,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3075","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-op-ed"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.7 -
