It's striking how much original news photography has declined in general. Almost every article these days comes with a zero-information, photoshopped generic image (like a bitcoin symbol over a story about cryptocurrency), an amateur shot copied from some random social media user, or just something straight out of a stock photo library. Not to lament the "good old days" of print journalism, but there was definitely a lot more effort put into getting good-quality images that were directly relevant to the story they accompanied.
