Where do this come from? There is EXCELLENT journalism all over the world. Even in places with high censorship (which are the exception, not the rule) there a great and brave journalism.

Local papers are disappearing left and right, in the US.

Most of what they do is not Big Stories, but things like covering the city council meetings in a way that TV stations don't.

Their disappearane has a real financial effect

There is no "journalism" in China. Or Russia.

Indeed there is of every kind, from community people to big media, of course, the official organs are biased, but they don't encompass all journalists, the same way American journalism is not just CNN and Fox News.

It is highly insulting and arrogant to assume there is no brave journalism there where people have lost their jobs or their lives by reporting inconvenient truths.

You need more street.
