journalists don’t get paid very much AFAIK, so it’s not a position who is attracting talent. that’s why we see a whole fucking lot of mediocre news articles who fail to comprehend what’s actually important.
that and because it’s not a very “respectable” position in the eyes of the public. have you ever met a child who said “i want to be a journalist” and their parents were joyous? i haven’t. if anything at all, you can expect your parents to give you a lecture of how it’s not a “good” job, you won’t “earn any bread” with it.
