Any attempt to purport to serious journalism disappeared decades ago. Never ever take the word of an audio journalist seriously. They’re not bad people per se, but just hacks trying to hold down jobs on behalf of their advertising departments. Treat them all as only advertising brochures and you can’t go far wrong.
