It was hard to get past the gatekeepers but once past, you could get something resembling fairness. That all changed with the introduction of something called "Advocacy Journalism" in the early 90s.

I worked as a columnist for a very large university's daily paper in the 90s. Even opinion pieces required three verifiable sources to make claims. THREE VERIFIABLE SOURCES.

Today's "reporting" is literally gossip and tattle-taling.
