For most people the minimum acceptable quality of journalism is quite low and AI journ may be enough.
It’s a bit like people saying they want organic cruelty free food if you interview them. Yet the cheap stuff sells too.
If you actually subscribe to the wsj/economist/whatever - adds up quick. So few do it.
