Journalism Quote

   I believe that the quote, "Journalism's major problem nowadays is that it's too detached from the overall society," means that journalism used to be more about sharing news, but now it seems to only be looking for a scandal.
   Journalism is focusing on famous people, and all the bad things they do, when what it should be doing is giving important news to the people.  It seems as if journalism is in a realm of its own because almost all the articles are focusing on famous people, and as we know most people aren't famous.
   What journalism needs to do is go back to the time when the point of the whole thing was to tell inform people about things they wanted to know.  Then the problem of being to detached will slowly fade away, or at least get better.
