Journalists used to be more professional and did not report, as news, ridiculous things like the dead-McCain comment. They used to actually report news, not gossip.
And, it was considered poor journalism to have unnamed sources because it meant the reporter wasn't good enough to get them on record.
Is it just the decline of journalism because women have joined up and men are fleeing?
What, donna, surely you aren't implying that women can't do a good or better job at journalism than men?
I'd say it is because the MEN are weeny, whiny snowflakes.
Just look at Acosta, Lemon, Cuomo, Joe the Smoe.
I rest my case.
