I don't actually blame the writers for this though. The technology that made a lot of journalists obsolete is also one of the reason everything has become click-bait to appease the algorithmic processes of driving engagement.

I guess this means good journalism will stand out much easier now because we are so used to click-bait that good writing should really stand out now. When everything is indexed and searchable human curation becomes even more important and good journalists can start filling this role if they are an expert in some domain.
