Perhaps Raitfaiter you could define which bit of the media you don't like, then you can trade insults with anybody who works for them and the rest of us can stay out of it. For that matter do you know specifically what part of the media AM Burridge, a servant of our democracy, was referring to? I'm pretty certain it wasn't Air Clues for a start.
As a part-time writer for specialist aviation and engineering publications (plus once for a few outdoors magazines and briefly for C4 on Scrapheap Challenge), I've never been accused of the sort of perfidy that you feel is rife, so I can only assume that you mean somebody else.
Who?
On a totally different note, and specifically not directed at Raitfaiter - there are clearly a lot of us in Pprune that write full or part time on aviation. Is there a case here for a forum where we can discuss such issues as deadlines, style, rates, difficult editors, sourcing pictures, information sources and other subjects quite critical to writing about aviation well and profitably?
