I don't know, did it have all that much to do with it even long ago? "Yellow journalism" and "muckraking" are both old terms.
And I guess ego has something to do with it, but it can't be all of it. Lots of people have big egos. A nice face, good voice, composure are all important. Kind of like what makes a good president in the TV age.
