Journalists do not only report the news, nor should they limit themselves to that. They also explain, classify and arrange the news, and put them into a broader context. This is the more interesting, the more difficult and more valuable part of their job.
Sure, you don't want to read this viewpoint. Great! There are thousands of cryptocurrency web sites with "proper" news and commentary for you to read.
Once you provide interpretation, you are picking and choosing. That's an easy vehicle for manipulation of public opinion, and is exactly why so many people lament the current state of journalism (not that the past was any brighter).
People lament the current state of journalism, because they feel "their journalists" aren't reputable, but the reputable ones aren't "their journalists".
There are journalists all across the political spectrum, from the extreme left to the extreme right. But everybody wants to see his opinion enshrined as "mainstream" by the New York Times or the Washington Post.
On the one hand, they place enormous value in those papers and their reputation, but on the other hand these papers only sell worthless manipulation. Something doesn't compute here.
