So a sports magazine that has been renting out its brand for decades is now representative of "real journalism?" I'm not sure "real journalists" would appreciate that conflation. Unless of course the comparison is apt, in which case "real journalism" died long ago.
- ghaff 3y agoRenting out the brand and/or selling their soul for clicks is a pretty common path predating the final implosion in a lot of cases. Forbes, National Geographic, and I'm sure countless others.

These are not the publications you remember from the 1990s. And yes, there are countless other examples.
