The press isn't going to devote more money to an article than they expect article will make them back in profit. You'll never see the depth that's being asked for, unless there's some existing scandal that might draw reader attention.

There's no reason we shouldn't expect better and criticise outlets for advertising crappy solutions without a real review. Calling out such outlets is great. Same with articles about the security VPNs give you.
- smt88 5y agoThis is totally untrue for reputable publications like Wired or Ars Technica. The editors may shut something down that isn't interesting, but the writers aren't making decisions based on profitability. If people want good journalism, get it from a good publication with real editorial firewalls and standards. If you're reading blogs, you're going to get blogs.
