A dear friend, now passed on, ended a 30 year, award winning career w the Boston Globe in the late sixties. One day he just snapped “I quit, you’re all a bunch of effin communists”. He told me once “when newspapermen became journalists that was the end of it”. He went on to bigger things in state government, which ended when Dukakis asked him why he refused to work for him. “Because Mike, you’re stupid”. Not making those guys anymore.
I am daily drenched in the backwash of the Boston Globe (some of us conservatives around these parts refer to it derisively as the “Boston Glob”
You’re right...guys like that aren’t in that business anymore. Sadly.
