To parapharase one of the Vice staffers heros "22 million unemployed is a statistic, 100 laid off journalists is a tragedy."

100 laid off Journalists is rookie numbers. You gotta pump those numbers up.

Nah, call them journalists, they poisoned the word, they don't get to be something else.

What we need to do is come up with a term for those doing honest investigating and reporting.

I agree. They shit in the bed. They can lie in it. The profession is forever tainted. Dan Bongino has a similar mindset - he hates even the thought of describing what he does as “Journalism” and I can see why.

These are the sorts of minds that came up with that trash virus model code. They'll fit in perfectly at Microsoft.
