Why does this only go in one direction? "Journalists" regularly publish reformatted company press releases, and quote "insiders" without attribution. That's fine because most news narratives support the status quo and those in power. When the (relatively) little guy has something to say, however, we're going to need some hard evidence! Our biases are telling.
People keep saying this, but it doesn't correspond to much mainstream journalism I can see. Getting competing quotes is not the same as working out which corresponds best to the truth.
