Sometimes it's because it's a long running IP and sometimes it's because stuff is creatively bankrupt.

Like Otto the bus driver in The Simpsons. He is now based on a slacker stereotype from over three decades ago. Guys like him are in their late 40s and 50s now.

Peter Parker being an Spider-Man's exclusive photographer for a newspaper sounds ridiculous now. But most depictions seem to have moved away from that.

Sci-fi and futuristic settings still want to ignore the internet, messaging and social media being a thing. People will talk via holograms and video calls or leave voice and text memos behind. The internet doesn't exist. Mobile phones don't exist. It's more likely that there's a futuristic version of a newspaper.

What are some other examples?

Newspapers still exist and they use photos...
