You raise another good point shakran. Journalism is inherently a commercial endeavor these days. It's a source of things to talk about over the water cooler. It's run not by the reporters out in the field, but by their bosses in the news room and in the offices upstairs. This situation probably has a lot to do with my gripes about what the news looks like these days. So yeah, let's blame the editors for some things, but I'm not willing to let the noble reporters off the hook just yet. They still more or less write the stories, and my gripe is about their quality, and not about which stories are selected to be covered.
