There have always been a few dedicated journalists who were actually interested in finding and reporting on the truth. And we have some now. Glenn Greenwald, as much as I disagree with some of his views, is an example, as are Andy Ngo and James O'Keefe. The question is not whether those guys should be working for mainstream outlets like Wooodward and Bernstein were back in the 70s. The question is whether the WaPo would even then have let Woodward and Bernstein publish their exposé if Nixon had been a Democrat.
It really is pathetic to see an entire industry fall so far.
Only a few generations and it is completely destroyed. Goes to show how quickly humanity can lose something it has built for centuries.
The question is will it ever recover?
Journalists have always been this way.
That isn't entirely true, there was a time when they would keep their own ranks in check and remove anyone who lied or made them look bad.
Journalism used to be a prestigious position, now it is a laughing stock filled with cunts.
