At some point in the future, many of the organizations on your list will have to admit that "activist journalism" is NOT informative (as in it does not 'serve' to inform anyone of anything.)
They will be forced to recognize that "press-release" journalism is usually either a) advertisement, or b) propaganda.
Also that the "public" is neither as stupid as they have been told to project, nor so 'afflicted' as to make their 'confidence' programming actually effective.
I won't expect acknowledgment of the 'retraction' of the bullshit they spread so eagerly in any real way. Just a whisper here, and a rumor there...
