<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@shriramk" class="u-url mention">@<span>shriramk</span></a></span> the WSJ does do some excellent reporting! One reporter I very much appreciate is <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@mimsical" class="u-url mention">@<span>mimsical</span></a></span> … agreed on the opinion page. It’s not my No. 1 preferred newspaper as it doesn’t have the breadth for me, overall, and is a little too zeroed in on business and tech (which I want but not only), but I do like it.<br />I currently have, I think, six newspaper subscriptions 🤣</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@shriramk" class="u-url mention">@<span>shriramk</span></a></span> absolutely. I wonder in this case you describe if part of it is the pace at which people are asked to produce content, and feeling like one needs to pretend to be an expert on all things?<br />I listened to a low-quality ( 😆) podcast recently that someone shared, and I marveled at how the person circled around a very real problem but then zeroed in on so-called specific causes with next to no evidence for it. Surprise, surprise, they were selling a supposed cure 🙄</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@shriramk" class="u-url mention">@<span>shriramk</span></a></span> thanks for reading and for the thoughts!<br />2 - yes, it’s a massive problem that many people can’t tell the difference or don’t know the difference between news and opinion columnists (also, some outlets purposely blur line between the two, or between ads now).</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.world/@obrien_kat" class="u-url mention">@<span>obrien_kat</span></a></span> This is why my preferred newspaper is probably the WSJ. The op-eds are a dumpster fire at their best, but their reporting is excellent (and also, covers "liberal" topics in ways that would surprise many people who only know them from social media). I guess if you sell news to people who make money off the news…you need to just do that much better?</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.world/@obrien_kat" class="u-url mention">@<span>obrien_kat</span></a></span> 3. Combining that w/ podcasts: just this morning I was listening to a high-quality podcast interviewing a person who (amongst other things) writes op-eds for the WaPo, talking about a subject I know well, and I was dismayed by how poorly she understood causal factors on a topic she widely opines on…and on how freely she switched between fact and opinion w/out flagging them. ↵</p>
<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@dabeaz" class="u-url mention">@<span>dabeaz</span></a></span> No, honestly, there are many other things I'd rather do, that I feel I'm better at and that are more useful (pooping is not particularly high on that list), but nobody wants to pay me for that. So here we are.</p>

So when you combine these, you're really trying to dig past superficial consistency to the, uh, spirit of the letters…</p>
