None of which are news reporting organizations that TDF brought into the thread.

I find it hard to believe Rachel Maddow/Tucker Carlson are pounding the streets for their next scoop too, all these "Journalists" you see on TV are just reporting their own little personal Op/Eds and calling them news. |

From your links: "Apple News isn’t a firsthand source of news, so the Cupertino technology giant tasked Kern with building a curation team to fight against algorithms and fake news, vet content providers and cut down on clickbait." |

Funny, I google "MSNBC Journalists" and I get this returned at the top of the results.
Could that qualify as Google playing with its content by telling the masses that these people, are in fact, journalists. You know, not the people playing reporters on TV |
