journalctl verbosity with cronie ... decrease logging level somehow

I have a root cronjob trigger every 10 min (cronie) and as a result my journalctl output is polluted with many entries of cronie triggering the job.  I did not see any options to decrease the cronie verbosity as it related to journalctl via googling so I thought I'd tap the community.  Thoughts?

To be clear, the crontab looks like this so it's not the output of the script I wish to silence, is the cronie calls to journalctl entirely.

Re: journalctl verbosity with cronie ... decrease logging level somehow

You could use a loop in a shell script instead of cronie for such a simple task.
