What separates “real journalism” from propaganda, spin and influence? ETHICS!
Dom and Jenna interview Rutgers professor of journalism, Carla Murphy about how she teaches the core ethics of journalism; particularly verification, transparency, and providing context.
Murphy explains why it’s essential to distinguish between objectivity as a method and objectivity as a concept, because journalists must continually self-check themselves, to ensure balanced reporting.
She also adds that journalism ethics should include diversity, equity and do no harm from within newsrooms and in published or broadcasted work.
