#2This makes complete sense. Corporate journalists have many incentives to not publish the truth or to be stenographers for the establishment. That is why corporate media and journalists hate truth tellers and fearless journalists like Julian Assange and demand censorship on Internet platforms like YouTube, Twitter and Facebok with their corporate "factcheckers" in tow as muzzlers. Access journalism wants to censor all other voices.

Agreed, if the establishment locks you out it’s impossible to do your job, so it’s difficult to bite the hand that feeds you
> journalists hate truth tellers and fearless journalists like Julian Assange
Huh? Assange and Snowden published with the help of several major newspapers
> demand censorship on Internet platforms like YouTube, Twitter and Facebok with their corporate "factcheckers" in tow as muzzlers
Journalists asking for censoring other journalists from YouTube? Where!?

I'm not an expert, but as far as I know, the difference between BuzzFeed (click-bait trash) and BuzzFeedNews (serious journalism sponsored by the former).

#7I did a job interview with them 10 years ago for a software developer position. (I live in the Naples area). At the time, I just graduated from college. The test was about JAVA and it was really hard. They also had a piece of their infrastructure written in Scala, that was bleeding edge at the time for such a small company. In the end I failed the interview but, like all hard interviews, I felt somehow satisfied by finally knowing what i didn't know. Kudos to them

Or Teen Vogue (which pivoted hard from beauty/fashion into sociopolitical commentary around 2016/2017).

Every rag aka DailyMail provide commentary, it's standard. Can't compare it with the Italians or Buzzfeed news. Vogue pivoted from beauty to standard gossip rag.
