It can simultaneously be true that:

- College students can be entitled and whiny sometimes

- Organic chemistry is especially difficult for a lot of people

- Semi-retired researcher isn't a great lecturer/teacher for a big hall full of freshmen

None of those things are especially newsworthy. They sound like Onion headlines on their own. But when one or more of them happen which could be framed in a way that incenses the public, it becomes a news story because that's how you make money in journalism in 2022.
