The word "journalist" is overused. A journalist chases facts and develops a story. They research the history, related informstion, actions and results. Oh how we need journalists

Today any hack writer with a gift for writing becomes a 'reporter' and calls themself a journalist. They know nothing of which they write. They question nothing they are told. Rather they are told to write a story with a particular ending and get it done

As these stories fail in the face if facts intelligent readers realize they have been duped. Reporters have lost all credibility. By using the word journalist they have insulted the profession

A great story is called fiction. A journalist needs to provide fact. Tell the truth about our schools, suicide, obamacare, Hillary, science, etc and maybe people will start to pay for the newfound quality
