    From a different post but I think it works here too:

    I think the error is calling these people journalist. They are not. They are content creators.

    Their job isn’t to get to the truth, it’s to drive clicks and comments. It’s to enrich them and their employer.

    There are good journalist still out there but since they don’t play to the almighty ALGORITHM they get drowned out.
