| Comment | Genuine question: if said journalist had messaged OP after the thread went up to arrange a chat about the problem, do you think that would have been more ethical and would OP have spoken to them?
Like it or not, journalists are going to be on here to look for stories. That's just how it works these days, but journalists worth their salt would message people to interview them and get unique quotes and perhaps have an angle they wouldn't necessarily have if they just copied and pasted.
I don't think the personal attacks towards the individual journalist are particularly helpful either. This is how Reach plc titles work. It's all about the clicks and an angry click is still a click in their eyes. |
