what’s their guarantee that the journalists won’t snitch on them? aren’t they also possibly leaking important information that can be used against them? like, what do they get out of it?

if you are a journalist that does this kind of material and proceed to then sell out the people you just interviewed you can be assured that no one in that field will ever talk to you again, assuming you dont end up facing blowback from the people you just screwed over.

you can also be assured that even if you outlive this you likely just lost your job and no one in the business will want to hire you as you are too much of a liability.

ofc there are exceptions ie: when there is a legitimate reason ot believe lives are in immediate danger from what you just witnessed but that rough and these organization rent THAT lax around strangers.
