Gavin Blair on Spoutible

The point you're missing is that we WANT journalists here, but they are choosing NOT to come here because it's too much like hard work. They want an instant replacement for Twitter.

I have convos with St. Louis and Missouri journalists on the bird. I miss that here.

When I joined Spoutible, I was not expecting it would endeavor to be the social media w/o journalists.

The absence of journalists here will result in the absence of govt, elected, and candidate accounts. 😥

They’re waiting to see what will happen. They may wind up moving all of a sudden, en masse, like a school of fish—or lemmings.

I feel like a lot of them are sticking to the bitter end as the bird fails. Some are testing the waters elsewhere- but still testing and not fully on board with any one alternative.

If we want them here, we need to make this platform thrive. We need to encourage them, ask them, tell them.

(Some of them, of course. Not all of them)
