Can we fire “Journalists” for lying too? The newspapers would cease to exist if that were the rule.

Yellow Journalism would cease to exist.

Here is a definition for journalism, from the online Merriam-Webster dictionary: writing characterized by a direct presentation of facts or description of events without an attempt at interpretation

From the definition, a lying journalist is NOT a journalist
