“I wasn’t about to turn students lose in MY field”……….I think you may want “loose” there instead of “lose”.
Well done!
I so agree about teaching and upholding standards of journalism!
So someone please tell me what happened to all these so called journalists these last few years?
You’re obviously, especially on the national level, the only one who still feels this way.
So they are taught the right way!
The biggest problem in education today – Kto12 or college is the lowering of standards!
Does that include teaching them to leave their personal political beliefs out of news stories? Apparently not.
I would love for you to write a column on the state of journalism in the United States. Especially since you espouse the notion of “let’s just have the truth, no matter how that cookie crumbles”. THAT is what I want to see, news reporting that is factual and without bias. If my ox gets gored, so be it. And poor sentence construction and grammar. Good Gosh! The local so called journalists make so many errors in their written reports it is shameful to claim to have taken college level English classes. Then you have news readers on TV. That is all they are, readers reading the script on the screen in front of them, and doing that poorly.
Ethics in journalism, really? Today, ethics in journalism is the exception and not the rule.
It’s a shame that hacks like Dan Rather, Heraldo Rivera, Brain Williams, Bill O’Reilly, Rachel Maddow, Jayson Blair, Lara Logan, Louis Seibold, Janet Cooke, and Dorothy Bland did not receive and accept Professor Van Tuyll’s instructions on truth and ethics. They are not journalists. It must gall her to watch and hear them or read their products.
I use to see the TASS reports in the 80’s and think wow, how could people believe that drivel. Now I see how..long gone are the days when people just read the news with no political or personal slant. There is no journalism anymore only talking heads and opinion channels..
Without a moment to snooze
lose became loose.
Look now, see more
in need of correction;
Seymore to Seymour
is what I call for.
Senryu?
What is wrong with your obits they don’t seem to be coming through, the last one was the 27th, that can’t be right.
