I appreciate your sentiment. I own an old Nikon film camera that I use every now and then and I'm always impressed with the photos it takes. There is something unique about them that isn't present in my digital camera. That being said, I think you are unfairly bashing journalistic photography. The purpose of his pictures isn't art, but capturing a moment for posterity. Your criticism is akin to complaining about a newspaper article because it lacks the plot and character development of your favorite novels.
