Not journalism.
In my experience as a journalism major, everything taught in journalism classes goes against doing well on verbal reasoning. We were taught that simpler is better, that the point of communicating is to be understood by the masses.
Clarity is key. A great deal of our time was spent editing out "bad habits" like jargon, unexplained abbreviations, double negatives, and anything that lacked clarity. By the time we were seniors, our jaws would drop at any article that contained too many numbers in one paragraph (confusing to the average reader), too many condensed details, unintended double meanings, etc. Misspellings were the ultimate sin.
Doctors would benefit from these HABITS in journalism because it would help them communicate effectively with patients, all patients.
Another point: Journalists are also trained to set a tone. Journalists, especially news anchors and reporters, are aware of their influence and impact on society. They are also aware of the "tone" that other journalists and writers are setting. VR passages sure do "set a tone" sometimes.
In my experience, journalists have a tendency to pause when the above issues with writing are spotted so that edits can be made. On VR, that's a lot of urges to pause and a lot of distractions.
