@oleg_ru you can likewise ask how many police really protect and serve, and how many doctors are healers - but it is this mission which gives the profession any legitimacy in society:)
And I think it's interesting to see how even journalists who are corrupt, or who work in corrupt or fascist countries, still perform fragments of that role. Looking at people's complaints over some small things while they ignore the big things, for example.
@Loukas Yeah, true, but journalists and the overall role of media is profound, especially in democratic countries and the quality of police and healthcare is also a subject of how media address possible issues. Sorry if I sound too attacking toward journalists.
