Yeah I've noticed this shift too. When I was younger there was no way a "respectable" journalist would use that kind of language.
The Columbia school of journalism literally changed their principles. They switched from objectivity and emotional detachment to outright activism and relativism. These are the official standards for the industry.
Same as with language of the current generation media has lost a lot of articulation, too. Idiocracy seems more and more like a prediction for the future.
