"Google" posted a job opening. They applied for and took the job, agreeing to posted pay and conditions. End of the story. It's not up to the Guardian to decide

I agree, article is pretty low quality ragebait. Not good journalism at all.

It is amazing how much their quality levels have fallen during the past two decades.

I used to point to their reporting as something that my nation’s newspapers should seek to emulate.

(My nation’s newspapers have since fallen even lower.)

Is it amazing? They are struggling to make money as much as every other news organisation, they have to keep cutting costs to do it. Then they need as many click throughs from social platforms as possible so that they can sell at least some advertising. I would say it is inevitable.

It is inevitable that the journalistic integrity of the Guardian goes to shit?
