You say that like it's a bad thing. It's not. The word you're looking for is "journalist," or maybe "reporter." But it's true that good ones are scarce these days. We see that a lot in Bruce's news posts, but that's not the only subject where they drop the ball regularly. Many so-called journalists don't do the necessary background research to understand the subject. They don't check whether what they've been told is factual. They don't confirm that they've even heard the person they talked to correctly. But they write the story anyway. Basically that class of journalist is a secretary, not a reporter. Nothing wrong with being a secretary, it's just that we, as readers, expect (and pay for) a different level of effort from a journalist.
