Your first mistake was considering them journalists.

Many who create click bait drool are like WIX “developers” calling themselves custom frontend engineers.

Even a junior journalist would do something as simple as quote the actual case. Time and time again I see these articles and even basic things are factually incorrect.

Even today I think there was a HN post about salesforce layoffs, quoted at 10k when it was 8k, and that wave happened in January when it was written as if there’s another wave coming.
