Ask HN: Why Did YC Kill RFS #1: The Future of Journalism?

The first Request for Startups created by Y Combinator was about the "future of journalism". The original RFS is quoted here [1], but does not appear on the current list [2].

What happened to this RFS? Does YC consider this a solved problem, or alternately, unsolvable? Do they just consider it to be less important than other problems?

I'm curious because I think it's an instructive way to think about the online content market (why are some of the best people in startups apparently no longer interested in the space?), not because I care for the sake of how it would impact an application to YC.
