People are abandoning mainstream coverage of campus protests per WAPO article by @taylorlorenz https://archive.ph/WaeRg

"Tofugh0st said that consuming Twitch live-streams of protests herself has made her more skeptical of traditional media."

Twitch streamers from the article:
Bret Hamilton?

Can anyone provide (me) a (link to a) list of Twitch.tv streams that someone interested in these protests could watch? I've never used/watched Twitch, yet,
