Are you aware of what magazine editors and newspaper editors/writers used to make in the heyday of print media (can probably add TV and radio too since the web has eaten that as well)? This is a ridiculous trope.
Flying cars turn out to be limited by laws of physics in a cost effective way and it also turns out that communication, storytelling, software services that automate processes (such as HR, sales pipelines, etc), search, etc are hugely valuable to humanity.
