I wonder how much of this is tied to the commiditization of content and how no one wants to pay for "good quality" content anymore--seems most actual good quality content exists because of philanthropy in our times.
Speaking as a content director myself and former writer/journalist, it does kill me a little inside that much of my day is spent around figuring out how to do this mimicking and how much I have to push my writers to think about this too in their writing. The state of the media industry/content makes me sad.
