For an ostensibly business oriented publication, this "Team Kalanick" BS makes the selection of the CEO for a billion dollar unicorn sound like grade school gossip. And the coverage itself is no better.

Is this really how far financial journalism has fallen?

Business Insider is rather linkbait driven. I've had more luck reading FT, Australian Financial Review and even Bloomberg to some extent.

That said, "grade school gossip" might be an accurate characterization of where this has descended to. Just because it's a huge company doesn't make it immune from petty infighting.
