National Post is actually a very good paper that has not abandoned professional journalism. I understand your point of view as it applies generally but they are an exception. National Post should definitely be missed if it goes.

Understood, but Mr. Kay's article seemed to be defending the entire "old media," and he used a story about a NY Times reporter exposing internet trolls as the sad figures they are, to justify the greatness of the entire media. The NYTimes is a pathetic bastion of slanted leftism. Including them in a story about our supposed need to be educated by our media was not a smart move if his point was to show that the "old media" is worth saving.

Maybe he should have defended the few outlets that actually still have journalistic ethics instead of trying to justify what most of the rest of them do based on some idea of "need" that the rest of the world supposedly has for their daily slanted propaganda.
