bring about the future we would rather live in

Attacking the ability of journalists to uncover misdeads of powerful individuals seems to be the opposite. Investigative journalism is under enough attacks as it is.

Shortly after the very early effects, it will have a net positive effect of creating news of positive value, protecting the media from escalating negativity, and bringing about the future we want to see in the world.

The future I want to live in isn't one where the 4th estage can't fights against misdeeds by powerful people.

powerful people.

interesting you say that because I suggested that the individual was not powerful and the media was.

What were Peter Thiel's uncovered misdeeds? Being gay?

Where do you think I made a claim that those exist?
