>>22377You read more into what I wrote.
>it does seem to me that things like investigative 'journalism' is dying...That one Hungarian news portal I rely on when I nibble for some news to enrich our news thread is definitely lost from it's quality through the years. Decades actually. Not because they write more things I don't agree with - they did always did that - but it's changed how they write, how they draft a text, words they use and such. I'm pretty sure they read too much English news outlets, take and translate way too many sentences and phrases and try to shoehorn them into their own articles. I find more and more sentences un-Hungarian and often came across Anglicisms. They also write in blogging style, overly informal and too opinionated. Sometimes it feels like if they were fugging Maddox, ofc in a more toned down manner but still.
I know they aren't the same people who were doing that job, the most prominent journalists left the company years ago, so the new ones are the lesser quality, less talented.
Also electronic journalism was a mistake.
