You're either a bot or a very confused person, because half your sentences do not even make sense. You connecting with your friend over the internet does not have anything to do with people working and putting the result of their work on the internet, like journalists do.
You say that "money makes it all worse" and in an ideal world I could agree with you. But I don't know if you've noticed that in THIS world people need money to live. The internet makes it possible to publish and exchange information at a near-zero cost, but the cost of creating that information remain, be it art, music, photography, videogames, programming, or journalism. That's where publishers need to come in.
P.s: I think you don't know what the word "meritocracy" means
