Journalists are not educated in anything except how to write. And they go and write about everything, aiming for an audience that is dumber than them. On top of all that journalism is an industry in contraction. Even the good journalists are paid as badly as teachers and they work under great pressure. Many of them are addicted to watching their click stats and not much better than a meatspace Facebook algorithm on legs. Is it any mystery how the end result is crap?
It's used to be they'd say least ask questions from people who know. Now I feel like they only make half assed attempts to Google something.
What's left of them are writing 6 stories a day, every day, so no, there's no time left for the old due diligence.
