Journalism may as well be dead

And you want to know why?

Too many of the news outlets -online and elsewhere- bury stories because they lack the sensationalist flavor that the editors hoped for. News becomes “viral” because the media outlets make it so through subjective manipulation and deceptive headlines. What ever happened to the integrity of the newspapers and publications to simply report the news -regardless of whether or not it had “viral” value to it? No wonder so much of our media coverage is celebrity-driven. We have lost our ability to not only think abstractly but to express ourselves in as much of an unbiased way as possible.
