Journalist are different from paparazzi's which are falsely considered journalist, especially when it comes to celebrity websites. However some professional journalist now use websites like tmz to help put together a general skeleton of the case they need to go cover.
Journalist are also using modern tools like Facebook to help find a quick background profile on certain individuals. They do not just report the news but have to uncover the facts.
