That's not correct. There were staggering numbers of them. In 1900 there were 15 English language daily newspapers in New York City alone.

The problem with Facebook is monopolization. It's different when you have a ton of places that share information, and some of them are biased in one direction or another, versus when you have just one, and that one actively works to prevent other options from emerging.
