That's a niche use case. You might not be able to choose what app they require to communicate over, but you can choose what device to install it onto, like a burner, couldn't you? Some apps you might not mind on your personal phone, others you probably do.

And that's exactly what an attacker would want to steal from a journalist: conversations between them and (or contact details of) another source. Which is all to say, ideally a journalist would have N phones, one per source. But that's impractical.
