I agree that journalists should be doing those things, but in reality, especially at large journalistic entities they use AI to derive content from previous articles on a topic adding new information.
If they don’t do it themselves, they pick up and republish content from other sources that do.
The system self-reinforces previously used language. Its laughable easy for someone to orchestrate the use of particular language early on and for all the news articles to perpetuate it, without even needing to continuously coordinate it.

So vibe journalism. That can only end well.
Exactly. It’s been going on for long before LLMs became commonplace.
