    I meant that journalism shouldn’t be commercial!

    Yeah, it’s a nice idea, but the world is fully of countries with state funded journalism and in general it cannot be trusted. It’s hard, because the commercialisation of the media is what keeps it independent of the government it criticises.

    In NZ I trust the state funded media the most, but world wide that is not the case at all.
