If high quantity sold, the market would shift to produce it. As it stands, people are happy with consuming only the headline of an article and moving on.

There are still many high quality outlets; most have just changed to discussion based formats. Take Joe Rogan for example. He talks to a variety of people, sometimes about current events, sometimes not. Similarly, Tim Pool, Sam Seder, Stephen Crowder, The Daily Wire, Ethan Klein's show, etc. all are daily news shows that produce content in the format people want.

The market shifted. Those working for dying industries can reallocate themselves. That's how the market keeps capital allocation efficient.
