Your comment about most people online optimizing for something like a hit of dopamine is correct. However, just FYI, I clarified later in that same section that my comment was referring to "well-intentioned" people.

And just FYI, I never said "all" journalists, I was only referring to most, a not altogether uncommon opinion.
