Reporter at Drop Site News, co-host at Breaking Points/Counter Points

My cousin just told me she thought Aaron Parnas on TikTok was a great journalist and it made me so upset. Should I start making TikToks about my stories? It’s not my natural medium at all but @ryangrim seems to have a good model for it.

Reporter and writer. I cover energy, climate change and geopolitics. Contact me via my website www.alexanderckaufman.com and subscribe to kaufman.substack.com.

It should not just be your stories 

That’s what Parnas and others have figured out

People don’t care about your own reporting more than other reporting sadly. They want to know you’re honest but beyond that they don’t care. As Aaron shows you can do no reporting. Most of my TikToks are just aggregated stuff. Back to my HuffPost roots.

What do you think is the right mix of your own reporting vs. stuff you're reading?

TIL that you are on FC! Glad to have you here!!!
