There has been a marked decline in the amount of complexity/detail you get in a mainstream publication about many topics, they've moved to a thoughts/feelings/opinion style of reporting over drier "just the facts" style, I don't know why but I imagine engagement online is better and that's bled into print but not a journalist. I do know that I find print journalism (generally) far less useful because I like detail.

Mainstream media has to compete for attention with dozens of new classes of entertainment, much more than we used to have in the 20th century. I find it human that attention span, and willingness to engage deeply with a topic, has declined in such an environment.
