  A shockingly high number of people who would have been journalists 20 years ago now work in Public Relations. Many journalism school graduates try to find work in the trade and end up as corporate mouthpieces.

    well I wouldn't say corporate mouthpieces, but journalism is mostly rewriting news from bigger agencies (like the dpa from germany) or from freelancers. I mean it's basically impossible to fill a daily newspaper with just own articles/personal. so newspaper call agencies to fill a lot of stuff. and they bring mostly a few original stories.

      I mean literally people who are trained journalists, and sometimes even experienced ones, going to work for a company or agency and writing press releases.
