The “Journalism” referred to is in fact dead. Click bait and out and out smear reporting, the hurry to print it now and apologize, or not, for erroneous content later is the norm. Create a narrative, excite the mob, what ever it takes to get the first click.

A friend’s son was going to flying school in No. Dak., home for the summer he got a track maintenance job for a regional, railroad. He returned to school, learned from older students the money they were getting offered for flying jobs. Half what he was making on his summer job. About that time the oil boom was hitting No. Dak. He was referred by friends from home to check out the BNSF railroad, soon hired in as a conductor “first officer” equivalent and soon promoted to engineer, Captain. Making well into 6 figures, bought his own airplane and kissed flying as a career goodbye. Hours are similar but the money at his ‘legacy’ carrier, beats his onetime dream of flying.

The "greed" that drives him is the same as that of any business leader. Your job depends on making as much possible for the owners of your business, stockholders, by providing a service as cheaply as you can. The greed I see is the pervasive sense of entitlement that is shown expecting the airlines, or any business to act as a charity. Face it the cheap seats sell or they'd be bigger with a higher cost.
