blog #2 thinking bout journalist ethics

Journalistic ethics should be important to journalists Because if they don’t follow codes and ethics then how can we trust them, it also gives them a bad name we they don’t care about the people. They should have to consider weither its fair or not They have a responsibility to not say a lie. They have to report the truth. Journalist should not be able to just say anything if I could offend people, or get somebody in trouble. Also i think the person has a right to know what’s going to be put into the paper. theres also some things that should leave out. Reporters and the interveiw subject should have a strictly business relationship, you shouldn’t know the person on a personal level because that but a bias opinion on it.
