Also worth noting that journalists as individuals and as a professional class do a terrible job explaining what their job is and how they do it. The internet creates a new and easy to take advantage of opportunity to increase transparency to solve this, but no bites.

A brief list of things that would be easy to do technically but that we don't: - list all the editors and copy editors who worked on a story - list who commissioned a story - make details about source's qualifications that are collected in a fact check clear on the story

- list the number of edits a story received - list the previous stories under this byline on the same topic(s) that qualify the reporter - list previous stories on which a source was used that qualify the source - clarify the revenue impact a story has.
