Hear hear. I've written about this as well: https://societystandpoint.substack.com/p/journalisms-glaring-class-problem

I also noticed that conservative sites didn't really give Timpa much coverage either. Likely because it show cops in a bad light, and many conservatives are pro-cop. So only libertarian publications like Reason cover Timpa, Daniel Shaver, Duncan Lemp, etc.

This clarifies so much for me. Notably the hard push back from TV presenters who are required by the BBC to be neutral. If they refrain from letting the public know their personal opinions either during broadcasts and interviews or via twitter accounts then ‘journalist activists’ are attaining a status that they are being denied. How unfair!
