“Howard Kurtz, Peter Goodman, Jim VandeHei, and Richard Johnson are just a few of the many reporters voluntarily exiting the legacy media to join online news ventures.” Why? Because they’ve apparently gotten tired of being forced to lie and twist the news for their liberal bosses. “The mass exodus from the traditional media comes at a time when the newspaper industry is struggling. Figures released this week by the Audit Bureau of Circulations show average daily circulation fell 5 percent in the April-September period, compared with the same period a year earlier.
"A March 2010 report from the Pew Research Center's annual Project for Excellence in Journalism showed that 2009 was a devastating year for the traditional news media. Among Pew’s findings were that newspapers currently spend $1.6 billion less annually on reporting and editing than they did ten years ago and over the last three years 15,000 full-time reporting and editing jobs were lost.” You’d think they’d realize why this is happening. But liberals can’t even conceive of the idea that they just might be wrong and that SOME people might actually realize it amid the crumbling nature of their business and profession . . . and that they might even realize why.
