I don't understand what half of these people are doing. If you don't want to ask hard questions of people in power, what's the point of being a journalist?

They are worried about getting dragged out and losing access.

So get dragged out and lose access! Haven’t we learned?

Corporate overlord pressure? Wanting to keep their jobs even though they're trashing their profession?

Aren’t they all part of Breitbart and OAN and Stormfront now? I think they kicked all the real journalist out.

Well, they can tell people they are a journalist, right? 🤦‍♀️

They are certainly compromised. Look at them at state media under Putin.

I'm sending this information across the internet. Shutting the CFPB won't stop this information from traveling across the internet.
I informed the CIA of my actions.

I'm both sad and relieved I decided to not go into journalism. The current state of it, especially the bigger outlets, is just terrible.

They’re too chickenshit

There’s no actual journalism within the executive branch anymore.

This is what terrifies me and motivates me most, the complicity.
