I think it's because the busybodies don't have a way to stand down without losing face.
Journalists have the real world savvy to not consider it important what political ideas are exposused by piss smelling disheveled streetpeople. But otherwise-"serious" jorunos have been spent the better part of a decade locked in a conflict with people who are mostly 12 years old and/or just trying to wind them up.
They can't admit to themselves that they completely dropped the ball on understanding the internet. Even journalists who knew what the internet in the early 2000s seemed to forgot the lay of the land once high-status people got the internet on their cellphones and were shocked that the content on the screen that didn't instantly cater to them.
So they will either push enough baddies off the internet to declare victory, or have to accept that they're a fucking embarrassment.
