…try to skip over the haranguing b.s. that won’t help a younger journalist and just makes older ones feel smug or angry. Instead I think you should consider checking out this article from the Columbia Spectator.
Especially this part:
Simon also decried what he described as a move away from true investigative journalism and toward cheaper scandal stories that he said are more likely to win awards.
“It’s easy shit if you caught somebody with their hand in the till,” he explained. “To get all of the facts arrayed in a way that makes that apparent is easy compared to the ‘why.’ The ‘why’ is epic. The ‘why’ is where journalism becomes an adult game … I found that there were less and less ‘adults’ in charge of the industry and in charge of the newsroom.”
Now, as you were. Back to Season 2 for me. Ziggy and the duck is a little like Ross and Marcel, but I can’t wait for that Steve Earle montage at the end.
