The screen res on that laptop is 1366x768 which is abysmally low on a modern laptop. You'll find it annoying coming from a macbook which generally have great screens. Especially as a journo as you'll care about screen real-estate.
Same with having a HDD as opposed to an SSD in 2019.
What about this (15.6" model):

or this (12.5" model):

If you are willing to go refurb from a third party seller, this would be the way to go IMO.
If you wanted to buy brand new because of warranty shenanigans, I'd still consider finding a laptop with a Full HD (1920x1080) screen. Dell have a slightly cheaper laptop that is full HD similar specs otherwise. It's a vostro though which I think is even more budget than the inspiron series.
Even then, I'd consider refurbs from first party retailers like dell. You'll get full warranty and a better deal.
