Before the feed existed, someone still had to decide what you heard.
In medieval England, that person stood at the market cross, rang a brass hand bell until the crowd gathered, and read the royal warrant aloud.
Get it wrong — even a word — and it was a criminal offence.
The lineage is longer than you'd think:
oral messenger → herald → town crier → newsboy → editor → algorithm curator.
Six roles. One job: filter the noise and amplify what matters.
The tools changed. The accountability? That part's still being worked out.
