Do you think that gatekeeping is increasing or decreasing in society? why or why not?

Gatekeeping is increasing more and more. The idea of gatekeeping is that the gatekeeper is the person who disseminates the news towards people, such as news agencies or paper companies or similar things. Since you have companies owning more and more news agencies at the same time, they basically can control what all the different news services will say, which means that anything that would not be considered to be valid news would be prevented from reaching people.
