I think that&#x27;s an unfair dig at Spider Jerusalem. He&#x27;s a decent (fictional) journalist in my opinion. Trying to uncover truth and stuff, old school.<p>More on topic though, the comments section of the article is also full of &quot;booohoo they have it sooo tough&quot; comments but I think work conditions are relative. It&#x27;s the typical job agency treatment only a couple of levels higher. If everyone around you is living the Facebook life and you&#x27;re curating news in a basement&#x2F;conference room...sure that&#x27;s not horrible but it&#x27;s still fairly indecent treatment.<p>Disclaimer: Huge Transmetropolitan fan, programmer not journalist :)
