Ah, we unsavoury members of the fifth estate. We're so unsavoury. I do in fact have food stains on my skirt right now, as I sit in my actual newsroom being an actual journalist.
It's going to be interesting, the changeover to "journo as force of good", if it happens in SV. I'm not sure, but I always got the impression that back in the days of Classic Supes, journalists were all proto-Woodward and Bernstein types, whereas now, I'm yet to see a journalist character on any show that is not a sneaky mother-selling weasel. Even on shows about actual journos.
