I think they are mostly journalists that couldn't get hired on at a major newspaper.


Why do you think that?


We could use more reporters and fewer journalists.

Brutal.


So this would imply they are trustworthy and dedicated to the truth, because we know major newspapers are neither trustworthy nor have any connection with the truth these days


You could just as easily say “wow, if not even those untrustworthy major newspapers will hire them, they really must play fast and loose with the truth”.


Or maybe just not as good at writing?
