You don't get your news from it but building tools can be useful. Scrapping news websites to measure different articles for thinga like semantic analysis or identify media tricks that manipulate readers is a fun practice. You can use llm to identify propaganda much easier. I can get why media would be scared that regular people can run these tools on their propaganda machine easily.
