A lot of the problems with journalism today are based in two things: an inability to objectively report, and the cause of that, journalism schools whose empty goal is not to teach objective reporting, but how to corrupt objective reporting with prejudice and opinion. Worse than useless.

In other words, if you want to publish objective news, only hire reporters with high school diplomas or degrees in subjects other than journalism. And even their title should be “reporter”, not “journalist”.

A large newspaper needs a multitude of reporters, and only one journalist, to write editorials and opinion pieces. And that journalist should not be the editor, whose job it is to keep the reporters objective.

If a large newspaper has more than one journalist, a second one could write on alternate days. But any more than that are both redundant and erosive.
