Both of these have been journalism then and now. Fluff pieces have existed since literally the earliest days of journalism. And obviously we have reporters still going to Afghanistan and Ukraine despite enormous risks to their own personal safety.

So… meh.

But why aren't journalists talking about [insert horrific event] I heard about from journalists? Journalism is dead.

Don't forget journalism straight outta Moscow. One slip up and it's to the gulag with you. Screw that, I'd rather be sitting at home writing clickbait bs.
