Solution

When we say mainstream journalism tends to privilege 'common sense' viewpoints, we suggest that mainstream journalism supports the prevailing ideology of the day. This means that the news and stories that are reported align with the most widely accepted beliefs and values in society at that time. This is not to say that journalism is elitist, unbalanced, or dictated by a specific group of people, but rather that it reflects the dominant perspective in society.

But a real "scoop" is a very rare event. And bogus scoops also bring disrepute to the newspaper.1) According to the passage, a journalist's work, includes
