    There's a national trend of editors/managers wanting reporters to write their narratives, the little novels they conceive of in their heads-https://twitter.com/artist57101/status/881711217240403969 …

    The owners of WAPO & NYT seem to use the papers for their personal "blogs" instead of letting journalists write, your opinion?

        Don't you think there a small core group directing all in MSM? This is no coincidence. It is coordinated & planned

        So maybe we should should refer to them as novelists not reporters. Fake news (fiction) an easier sell

        They're dressing up their articles w/ falsehoods & blatantly spun narratives, all in an effort to get the most clicks. It's pure dishonesty.

        Journalism is about making a difference not telling the truth. Unelected, unaccountable priests trying to dictate to the masses.

        Agreed. I studied J in 82. Seems standards have changed from "pyramid" to "opinion." Why did the standards change? #journalism

        I sometimes see it in the questions they don't ask or maybe they do but don't use because it hurts their story line

        I think it's great. Keep a diary. But don't call it journalism. That's counter to the purpose and protection of a free press.
