Fortunately, it's not all "journalists."It's a shame to see "journalism" that is biased toward short-sighted and selfish policies.
Coincidentally, one of the classes I teach is corporate/organizational ethics. When one boils it down, for-profit corporations, by their nature, are devoid of ethics because their sole purpose is to make money for shareholders. Those that are progressive and have some social conscience are rare birds, but you hit it on the head. "Cheap gasoline" is only cheap at the pump. All the external costs (health, environment) are totally ignored for someone else to pay.
