this makes me sad because newspaper people are not rich at all

city desk editors and reporters and photojournalist and fact checkers are poverty wage jobs.

they are not the rich.

It's almost like wage labor is a form of servitude to the owners of the means of production under capitalism.

Dosn't matter, they have to do what the people who own the newspaper tell them to do. And those are rich.
