Think it’s time to rethink do journalists actually own the rights to articles about the lives and actions of others.

It’s not Harry Potter, they wouldn’t have written those words without someone else doing something of note the journo has nothing to do with, they just observed from a far and wrote the words about what happened from memory.

Kinda like an AI reads the action of their writing then can report on their writing.

It’s all just reporting on the actions of another, if the AI is in the wrong and needed to ask consent then the journo needs to ask consent from those they write about too.

Such a requirement would make actual investigative journalism all but impossible.
