Is there no journalistic integrity anymore?

No, not that much, kinda proportionately not ever, but especially less now with the younger crowd.

Like many women, I've been following stories in the media exposing abuses against women. The most harrowing accounts are about women abusing other women—sometimes girls—such as Jeffery Epstein's "madam" Ghislaine Maxwell procuring their victims, many of them, tragically, underage.

Today I came across a female journalist who had a choice while publishing a story: she could protect the victim and her privacy, or she could out her against her will, exposing the victim to further trauma in a societal context.

The reporter subjugated the victim's privacy in the name of "serving the truth and her readers."

Just when you hope a female journalist will protect a victim—a fellow woman—it all implodes.

I'm beyond disappointed, but hardly surprised. This happens every day.

A journalist's job is to sell a story. I get it. It is their way of life, and I respect that.

I have no respect for journalists who are willing to throw their sources under the bus just to sell a story—especially the sources and victims they seemingly attempt to protect.

No journalistic integrity there.

None whatsoever.
