Did you read it? I think the author was stating that specifically in their opinion, most media of any kind(they mention Internet), is more money driven, than truth, or informational driven.

QUOTE: "When writing is a money-making exercise devoid of editorial standards or ethics, every word is part of a business strategy designed to yield as much profit as possible."

QUOTE: "The pursuit of profit at all cost explains the endless slew of filler content flooding every corner of the internet"

So how does this article match, or mimic what it complains about, o calls out?

Off of that, I was just watching one of the evening news programs. I noted everything was 'breaking news'; although by Internet standards, it was 'yesterday's stories'... My point in mentioning this, is that it is somewhat on par with the article in the OP.... To state breaking news, when most people realize it's old news, is on par with fake news, and attempting to con people to stay tuned in for simple advertising numbers(which is the reason they're on the air).
