It is not reasonable to think that corporate journalists advance their careers, using money and social benefits as proxies for career advancement, by speaking truth to power any more than it would be for other careers. In nearly all cases you advance your career by being conformist and supporting powerful people. There isn't any reason for corporate journalism to be different.
You mean except for every journalist who has raised the ire of a Presidential administration in the US by going public with some detail or another of overreaching surveillance, malfeasance within the administration, abuse of prisoners, waste in defense spending (added bonus here of pissing off multibillion dollar corporations with deep ties to media outlets), foreign relations blunders, or leaks of one form or another?
Why is this story off limits but those stories not?
