What a total load of bollocks. Bare-faced lies.
It is. I've edited sections of The Times, Metro, Mail and Telegraph. Which part of the media do you work in?It's not though is it?
Either you're nowhere near experienced enough in this industry to comment or you're lying through your back teeth.

No mate, I'm not falling for anything.
I believe him, I believe my mate and more importantly I believe that the standard of journalism is dumbed down otherwise we are one thick nation.
It is a FACT that journalists tailor their work for their audience.
It's not even really a conversation. It's fucking obvious.
The only reason a Sun journalist might get paid more is because of readership numbers and incomes.
Look, not for one second am i saying they are not very intelligent people, capable of putting some very good work out but the fact is, they write for a paper whose readership isnt interested in in depth analysis or even facts half the time with a pair of tits and page after page of celebrity gossip just about all they can handle most days.
I stand by my opinion that articles written for the Times will in most instances stand out quality wise from those in say the Sun or similar and its that way for a reason......readership.

I agree. Different readerships. But it's actually quite hard to write the way The Sun does, believe it or not. It's an art (a bit of a shit one but still an art).
I'm not sure filling in the crossword counts as editing it mate.
And I work in the part that talks first hand to journalists on a regular basis who literally tell the same story despite working at different organisations.
Because I don't care if you're CP Scott, you have absolutely no idea what every editor on the planet is looking for. And obviously never worked or had any contact with people who worked in the Daily Mail US offices nor read the massive expose that was done on their hiring and editorial practices about 2 years ago by Gawker nor have ever been part of "Martin Clarke's terracotta army" as they called it.
Oh, FFS, I know that. You write for your audience.
But to suggest a plumber wrote a piece that had to be dumbed down is plain silly on a number of levels, not least that the commissioning editor would just chuck the piece at a sub to rewrite - they wouldn't send it back to the 'writer.'
