Reads like an 8th grader's report trying to meet the teacher's word count.

I've actually noticed how _bad_ the writing of some articles can be. I'm not a good writer by any means... but the best I can say is it sounds like an essay cranked out by someone in high school.

Just reminded me of my first "wtf." A journalist for our local university wrote a review for the movie "Hustlers" where they justified sexually assaulting and robbing men in New York because "men in New York were responsible for the 2008 financial crisis." All without missing a beat. Can't believe what passes these days.

When you find out how little these writers are paid you can understand the amount of effort they can put into these articles and still make enough money to eat.

Well, seems there's more people wanting to write than demand.
