Journalism's Nosedive: a NZ Herald Example

pn283

Don't expect fair and balanced reporting from much of  the NZ media anymore. Now there's little reporting. It's too boring. 

Instead, we have "opinion" or "comment" pieces where once-reporters tell us what they think of the news— and everything else on which they hold an opinion.  

They might, of course, be well qualified to tell us what they think, though we've not informed of their qualifications or political beliefs.  But I'd still prefer them to state the facts and allow readers to form our own opinions.
