I’m my experience most posters on HN are don’t under technology either. So they both don’t understand people or technology putting them two steps behind a journalist.
- oblio 10mo agoYou don't need to defend your entire field. Journalists are people, like everyone else, and most people are bad at their jobs. Plus, what even is the job? For most journalists out there, it's just writing something that draws ad impressions and clicks. The percentage of journalists that work for outlets where the content itself is the cash source is very small (NYTimes, probably a bunch of other paid subscriptions). And even the NYTimes isn't above clickbait.
