It would seem to me that it was not only the 2016 election that poured gasoline on the dumpster fire that is legacy media, but also the teaching in schools of ESG promotion in news. Many, many young journalists believe objectivity is not only not desirable, it's not possible. The new journalistic standards promote the correct take on events to advance society in the proper direction. Vetting a story, the facts, the conflicts of interests, the power players, who benefits, etc. is not necessary because the goal is to move in a 'moral' direction. Everything is in service of this.
