    Politicians get a lot of blame for our current state but I think journalists are just as culpable.

    Professional standards (and human morality) exist for a reason.

      I think the journalists themselves are stuck in the same place a lot of us. Working for someone they can’t support morally, because they owe money and need a paycheque, and every place they could move to will likely have the same problem.

      The issue is with the owners.
