Is there something you expect to see that is missing from the journal?
Yes, the output of cron, that is not a part of the journal output.
Then cron is broken.
cron by default sends the output to root
$ head /etc/crontab
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=root
From 'man cron':
"When executing commands, any output is mailed to the owner of the
crontab (or to the user specified in the MAILTO environment
variable in the crontab, if such exists)."
It also states:
"Any job output can also be sent to syslog by using the -s option."
The problem with that option is that the output from cron can
voluminous, and voluminous messages are better suited as mails.
