I actually do think it's deceitful. So again, I'm thinking about a friend that I made who was outside of journalism. And we would complain together all the time, we were in our mid-twenties, about how expensive this city is. And actually, she was living in an apartment that was even less pleasant than mine was in a kind of a big room share situation in Bushwick. It was a pretty nasty apartment, honestly. And so when we were complaining about how bad things were, I did have this feeling that we were kind of in the same boat.

As journalists, it can feel like the incentives of our tribe are almost always to ask: what's bad about this? But it is a particularly hollow and timid kind of journalism that finds itself unable to also ask: what could go right?
