brown journalism
1. journalism so biased, fallacious. filthy and full of shit that it makes mainstream journalism appear accurate and objective by comparison.
2. news so heavily biased and lacking in journalistic integrity that it actually makes yellow journalism seem white as snow.
3. News sources so absurdly base in their methods and so utterly lacking in basic standards of quality, accuracy, and objectivity that they somehow manage to make Fox news actually seem "fair and balanced" by comparison!

It may be true that modern journalism has become a hopeless mess of yellow journalism. But if you want to see a real cesspool, check out some of the alternative news sources. The Blaze, Prison Planet, Natural News, Mother Jones- these news outlets have gone farm beyond the territory of yellow journalism into what can only be called 'brown journalism'.

Citizen journalism
Citizen journalism, also known as collaborative media,1:61 participatory journalism,citation needed democratic journalism,2 guerrilla journalism3 or street journalism,4 is based upon public citizens "playing an active role in the process of collecting, reporting, analyzing, and disseminating news and information."5 Similarly, Courtney C. Radsch defines citizen journalism "as an alternative and activist form of news gathering and reporting that functions outside mainstream media institutions, often as a response to shortcomings in the professional journalistic field, that uses similar journalistic practices but is driven by different objectives and ideals and relies on alternative sources of legitimacy than traditional or mainstream journalism".
Mainstream media is a joke! I trust citizen journalism. I mean essentially all journalism starts as citizen journalism anyway.

green journalism
This term is a criticism of modern journalism. It references to "yellow journalism" - a term used for the sensationalistic journalism during the turn of the 20th century. The green refers to money and the greed of the industry and/or the pro-environmental bias.
Often as sensationalistic as its yellow predecessor, green journalism tends to appeal to our emotions, exploit our fears, and pander to our vanity. It places a political agenda in front of the quest for journalistic truth and in its most demagogic forms tolerates no criticism, branding all who question it as enemies of the people.
