Just as any in the other categories may be "highly regarded" by their peers.
The fact remains that much of the public thinks little of jounalists, just as they think little of politicians, used car salesmen, loan sharks, prostitutes, and pawn brokers.
Justifiably so.
Actually, looking at the list, jounalists help make used car salesmen and prostitutes look pretty respectable.
I would like to apologise however...for leaving lawyers off the list. Anymore they are hard to distinguish from political ideologues.
