A reason I believe Medium has a quality problem is because writers must churn out content fast and furiously. This leaves little time or space for original research and certainly not interviewing key sources. We provide opinion pieces based on personal experience or lots of life lessons. Nothing wrong with that, and those can be entertaining to read, but a lack of depth becomes apparent. Remember the days of newspaper columnists? Art Buchwald comes to mind. He had wit. and then there was Jim Murray who wrote sports opinions, analysis for the LA Times. He was experienced and was entertaining, even for those who didn't like sports. We get pulled into the rush for views, reads and pay instead of being paid for unique content that reflects an understanding of the craft.
