Why Local TV Loves the Presidential Campaign
The bounty from political advertising is expected to set a new

New Hampshire Teaches National News Media a Lesson
January 9, 2008
It wasn’t quite “Dewey Defeats Truman,” but after the Jan. 8
Granite State primary confounded many of the pollsters and
pundits, one of the key story lines that emerged in coverage of
the McCain and Clinton victories was the media’s proclivity to
predict and pre-analyze the results.

A Media Mystery: Private Security Companies in Iraq - A PEJ
Study
June 21, 2007
The 30,000 employees of Private Security Companies

currently operating inside Iraq represent a new element in

Principles of Journalism
In 1997, an organization then administered by PEJ, the

Committee of Concerned Journalists, began a national
conversation among citizens and news people to identify and
clarify the principles that underlie journalism. After four years of
research, including 20 public forums around the country, a
reading of journalism history, a national survey of journalists, and
more, the group released a Statement of Shared Purpose that
identified nine principles. These became the basis for The
Elements of Journalism, the book by PEJ Director Tom Rosenstiel
and CCJ Chairman and PEJ Senior Counselor Bill Kovach. Here are
those principles, as outlined in the original Statement of Shared
Purpose.
A Statement of Purpose
After extended examination by journalists themselves of the

character of journalism at the end of the twentieth century, we
offer this common understanding of what defines our work. The
central purpose of journalism is to provide citizens with accurate
and reliable information they need to function in a free society.
This encompasses myriad roles--helping define community,

creating common language and common knowledge, identifying
a community's goals, heros and villains, and pushing people
beyond complacency. This purpose also involves other
requirements, such as being entertaining, serving as watchdog
and offering voice to the voiceless.
Over time journalists have developed nine core principles to meet

the task. They comprise what might be described as the theory of
journalism:
1. Journalism's first obligation is to the truth
Democracy depends on citizens having reliable, accurate facts

put in a meaningful context. Journalism does not pursue truth in
an absolute or philosophical sense, but it can--and must--pursue
it in a practical sense. This "journalistic truth" is a process that
begins with the professional discipline of assembling and
verifying facts. Then journalists try to convey a fair and reliable
account of their meaning, valid for now, subject to further
investigation. Journalists should be as transparent as possible
about sources and methods so audiences can make their own
assessment of the information. Even in a world of expanding
voices, accuracy is the foundation upon which everything else is
built--context, interpretation, comment, criticism, analysis and
debate. The truth, over time, emerges from this forum. As
citizens encounter an ever greater flow of data, they have more
need--not less--for identifiable sources dedicated to verifying that
information and putting it in context.
2. Its first loyalty is to citizens
While news organizations answer to many constituencies,

including advertisers and shareholders, the journalists in those
organizations must maintain allegiance to citizens and the larger
public interest above any other if they are to provide the news
without fear or favor. This commitment to citizens first is the
basis of a news organization's credibility, the implied covenant
that tells the audience the coverage is not slanted for friends or
advertisers. Commitment to citizens also means journalism
should present a representative picture of all constituent groups
in society. Ignoring certain citizens has the effect of
disenfranchising them. The theory underlying the modern news
industry has been the belief that credibility builds a broad and
loyal audience, and that economic success follows in turn. In that
regard, the business people in a news organization also must
nurture--not exploit--their allegiance to the audience ahead of
other considerations.
3. Its essence is a discipline of verification
Journalists rely on a professional discipline for verifying

information. When the concept of objectivity originally evolved, it
did not imply that journalists are free of bias. It called, rather, for
a consistent method of testing information--a transparent
approach to evidence--precisely so that personal and cultural
biases would not undermine the accuracy of their work. The
method is objective, not the journalist. Seeking out multiple
witnesses, disclosing as much as possible about sources, or
asking various sides for comment, all signal such standards. This
discipline of verification is what separates journalism from other
modes of communication, such as propaganda, fiction or
entertainment. But the need for professional method is not
always fully recognized or refined. While journalism has
developed various techniques for determining facts, for instance,
it has done less to develop a system for testing the reliability of
journalistic interpretation.
4. Its practitioners must maintain an independence from those

they cover
Independence is an underlying requirement of journalism, a

cornerstone of its reliability. Independence of spirit and mind,
rather than neutrality, is the principle journalists must keep in
focus. While editorialists and commentators are not neutral, the
source of their credibility is still their accuracy, intellectual
fairness and ability to inform--not their devotion to a certain
group or outcome. In our independence, however, we must avoid
any tendency to stray into arrogance, elitism, isolation or
nihilism.
5. It must serve as an independent monitor of power
Journalism has an unusual capacity to serve as watchdog over

those whose power and position most affect citizens. The
Founders recognized this to be a rampart against despotism
when they ensured an independent press; courts have affirmed it;
citizens rely on it. As journalists, we have an obligation to protect
this watchdog freedom by not demeaning it in frivolous use or
exploiting it for commercial gain.
6. It must provide a forum for public criticism and compromise
The news media are the common carriers of public discussion,

and this responsibility forms a basis for our special privileges.
This discussion serves society best when it is informed by facts
rather than prejudice and supposition. It also should strive to
fairly represent the varied viewpoints and interests in society,
and to place them in context rather than highlight only the
conflicting fringes of debate. Accuracy and truthfulness require
that as framers of the public discussion we not neglect the points
of common ground where problem solving occurs.
7. It must strive to make the significant interesting and relevant
Journalism is storytelling with a purpose. It should do more than

gather an audience or catalogue the important. For its own
survival, it must balance what readers know they want with what
they cannot anticipate but need. In short, it must strive to make
the significant interesting and relevant. The effectiveness of a
piece of journalism is measured both by how much a work
engages its audience and enlightens it. This means journalists
must continually ask what information has most value to citizens
and in what form. While journalism should reach beyond such
topics as government and public safety, a journalism
overwhelmed by trivia and false significance ultimately
engenders a trivial society.
8. It must keep the news comprehensive and proportional
Keeping news in proportion and not leaving important things out

are also cornerstones of truthfulness. Journalism is a form of
cartography: it creates a map for citizens to navigate society.
Inflating events for sensation, neglecting others, stereotyping or
being disproportionately negative all make a less reliable map.
The map also should include news of all our communities, not just
those with attractive demographics. This is best achieved by
newsrooms with a diversity of backgrounds and perspectives. The
map is only an analogy; proportion and comprehensiveness are
subjective, yet their elusiveness does not lessen their
significance.
9. Its practitioners must be allowed to exercise their personal

conscience
Every journalist must have a personal sense of ethics and

responsibility--a moral compass. Each of us must be willing, if
fairness and accuracy require, to voice differences with our
colleagues, whether in the newsroom or the executive suite.
News organizations do well to nurture this independence by
encouraging individuals to speak their minds. This stimulates the
intellectual diversity necessary to understand and accurately
cover an increasingly diverse society. It is this diversity of minds
and voices, not just numbers, that matters.

Powered by: PhasAdvice for Students Interested in a Career in
Journalism
Bill Kovach, Senior Counselor of the Project for Excellence in

Journalism
A curious mind and a broad liberal arts education are by far the
best qualifications for a career in journalism.
The best foundation begins with an undergraduate liberal arts

education that exposes you to a wide range of disciplines of study
and helps you supplement your native curiosity with a habit of
critical thinking. Whatever course of study you follow, be sure to
include a strong foundation in ethics. Then consider study at a
university that offers a graduate degree in journalism.
You can begin to develop your skill in the "craft" of journalism by

working on a college newspaper or radio station; a television
station that features a college report; or working as a college
correspondent for a local, regional or national news organization.
As for experience while still in school and immediately after
graduation, think about immersing yourself in a local experience.
Working in a community in which you must look the people in the
eye about whom you report before and AFTER you have reported
on them can provide very important lessons.
And, throughout all this, read. Read everything you can, including
classics in fiction that can help you begin to understand human
nature and the human condition. Develop a habit of critically
following the work of other journalists and find models for your
own work.
Good luck.
