Wondering what this all means. I think a lot about media and the loss of true journalism and where can one find news sources one can trust. This answers some questions and raises more.

I'd love to hear what my fellow PA DUers have to say about this.

1. They can probably pay a lot more money?

He is only 40 and on his way up. The article doesn't say anything about his qualifications in business or journalism, so it's hard to read any more into it.

2. yeah, definitely more money

I was vague. I was thinking that it seems like when a politician gives some corporation breaks, then becomes a consultant or lobbyist for them.

I was thinking that journalism has gone down in the PG. IMO there's more right wing editorial pieces and more opinion leaking into what should be straight reporting. I was thinking about how much leniency in investigation did the paper give pharmaceutical and medical companies.
