It’s very convenient that the “accountability” journalism is directed at media’s direct competitor, namely tech, rather than their other direct competitor, namely other media companies 🙂

For example, Bloomberg: “we report on but do not investigate Reuters and CNBC.”
You’d believe media corporations believed in accountability if they held each other accountable. But:

1) Bloomberg admitted non-aggression pact with Reuters and CNBC
2) ABC and CBS colluded to pursue Robach leaker
3) NBC covered up Farrow’s work

Here’s ABC getting CBS to fire a staffer for suspected leaking at ABC (she denied she had anything to do with it).

Normally media companies are pro-leak, except when it’s on each other.

Does that look like media companies holding each other accountable?
