    This was note elsewhere on HN but at least three of these - from MSNBC, Mashable, and CNN - aren't truly journalists. Yes, the produce a lot of editorial-ish content doesn't default them up to (what is supposed to be) journalism's higher standard.

    The fact the NYT doesn't understand that make their employee suspect as well.

    For the sake of discussion, this list is a solid lens for identifying journalistic activity, or the lack there of.
