Anybody else find the writing of this article below passing in 5th grade English? Whatever happened to the classic mantra for news articles; Who, What, When, Where, How and Why?

News outlets fired most of the editors a while ago. That had an impact.

And I think we are now on to a secondary problem — “journalists” do not have to write well or clearly. That’s not important in the hiring process. The hiring manager is just looking for people who are on board with the Narrative and who will tell the story in the way that they are instructed to tell it. If you are willing to play that game, then you can be a “journalist”, even if you don’t right good.

Don’t be silly. You’re thinking of what was once known as journalism, but has sadly gone the way of the dinosaurs. The childish swill penned these days is nothing even remotely close to true journalism.
