There are, at root, two types of journo.

Access journos trade their name and access to pages and airtime for access to some person.

Quick and easy way to just be that person’s bullhorn, saying exactly and uncritically what such person want to be heard.

Ignored journos keep their integrity at the cost of being heard.

But they are the ones that point out and prove that every utterance of that person is a bald faced lie.

Follow ignored journos that know what’s up. :)
