    Go examine a journalism course curriculum - they are still pumping out good journos that speak truth to power.

    The trouble is media ownership is very much captured by the ultrawealthy, and they appoint editors and department heads that further their personal goals to the detriment of journalism.

    Like Bezos spiking stories about billionaires or Trump, ever since he took ownership of the Washington Post.

    The problem is not individual journalists - it’s the media ownership landscape.
