It did ask and get: “Most Americans (79%) agree that someone who writes for a newspaper or news website is a journalist”
Which is sad because true journalism is effectively a verb. It not who you are, or your title, or who you do it for. It’s what you do in order to reveal the truth. Furthermore, reporting and journalism are not synonymous. Along the same lines, op-ed is not journalism.
Just because it comes from The NY Times doesn’t by default make it journalism - tho the NYT is happy for you to believe otherwise.
This is my go to. It’s not prefect, but it does (indirectly) - as it should - call bullshit on most of today’s “journalists.”
