7 things I’ve learned about journalism in 7 years of being a journalist

It's not true because everyone is racing to be first, regardless of truth..

You don't say I..
It's the media outlets that say I who pay your work.
You don't own the story.

MSNBC, CNN and FOX lost ther ways.
It's about controlling their viewers and trying to control people's political views.. dividing America and encouraging us to hate our country,America. God Bless America

So... Theres Journalism in vox? I thought it was just proppaghanda

stumbling upon this video restored my hope in the future of journalism and the field of writing as a whole.

So true with journalism schools and film schools...

7 years? woooow good job

About journalism school teaching the history and the old ways of journalism, maybe they do this so the history of the field (journalism) don’t die. It’s is important for a such important group of professionals maintain their own history and after all when all this “new” ways fades will be those professional to research and recount how was things were done today.

Journalism feels like a nice job to do

Actually we need our youth To seek congress. Our leaders are. Killing usx

Hi! Thank you kind sir. I dare you to research how our government are stealing homes from working class. Forclosures false home mods, low interest rates for foreign investors, cash buy over working class. High interest rates to prevent homes for the ppl.

Journalism is now hand to mouth and bread and butter politics, its all about whose toes am l not stepping on. Thats why you have embedded journalism...or may l say in-beded...

as a future journalist who will be a novice when I start this career listening to you is helping me pinpoint what and how journalism
should be done.. thank you, kind sir

In my humble and biased human opinion, saying things like "objectivity is a myth" or "objectivity doesn't exist" are dangerous statements to make and an even more dangerous statement to believe. I think I understand what you're trying to say here, but you choose a very simple, generalized explanation that waters down a very nuanced, complex idea. I agree that all of us as human beings are biased by our very nature, but when you use such a blanketed statement as this, people will take it and run with it. It's important to understand we are biased but it is also incredibly important to discover, interrogate, and challenge those biases. That's how we learn and grow as individuals. I think it's also important to emphasize that though we can never truly be free of bias, that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive to be as unbiased as possible. Individuals will also use a statement such as this as a weapon against proven facts and hard evidence. One other thing I wanted to note is that while I agree that all sides of an issue should be accurately represented, "being fair" is drenched in bias and subjectivity in and of itself, and so one person's idea of being fair is going to be vastly different from the next. At the end of the day, I'm simply saying that facts and objectivity are important and perhaps we should all strive to interrogate our perspectives and beliefs, especially at a time such as this in our society.

thinking about journalists from all the world that died in isreali aira strike in gaza

In my university, journalism school has different style of learning. We experiment to do different style of news gathering, and other aspects that journalism has this 21st century.

My head goes right while watching this, thank you Johnny Harris, God bless you for everything you made for better.

Historians are like journalists for the past, but with more guessing 😑

Can u share a little bit your academic background?

Haha, seven years of being a liar.

Learning from women is cringe bro

Journalism seems fun with filmmaking i right now want to join the marines I also want to go to Cambridge for music, astronomy because I think you can learn how the universe or planet was created by sound waves or just sound

lol @ the intro now that trump has been indicted 4 times

I love your voice and accent

I thought about being a journalist but after watching this I feel like its just a pool of political opposition writing dishonest and biased pieces that don't serve people in any way. If I was to pursue this I would include both sides of the argument in my piece and state where I agree and disagree

Yep, what he said.

Great summary and insight into what journalism actually should be (and what it is when done well) and the tradeoffs involved. The objectivity session and the economics sections are priceless and should be watched in their entirety, then watched again. Thanks for sharing.

You're right about objectivity. It is a highly malleable property. Similarly, there is in a sense no such thing as non-fiction--all writing is derived from a certain undisclosed set of biases.

Objectivity, truth, reality, and even morals are all context-bound.

McLuhan's famous pronouncement, "The medium is the message," remains highly relevant today. As a matter of fact, its applications are more widespread now than in 1960.

Valid interpretations of McLuhan's edict are highly diverse. Drastic time compression is one example; a televised documentary about, say, the Mesozoic Era might reduce 200 million years to two hours (not including commercials).

A far more common example might be editorial selectiveness: what receives a banner headline in the National Hiss-Dispatch might not be covered at all by the New York Times.

Another, distinctly modern example is how the Internet is affecting scholarship. (I'm sorry, but "online PhD" doesn't even sound right.) Just as many people, armed with camera, keyboard and microphone, now deem themselves expert political analysts and entertainment critics, many others (or maybe the same ones) can skim any topic at all on the Web, for five or ten minutes, pick up a few important new words, and consider themselves now fully informed.

Don't overdo your praise of "new" journalism, which appears to be promoting such cutting of corners. Among modern journalists, the level of functional literacy is alarmingly poor, just as it is elsewhere. (The note below this one, for instance, consists of two short lines--and it contains three grammatical errors.) I have actually heard television news anchors use the phrase "whole nuther"...I've tried (unsuccessfully) to imagine this utterance coming from Walter Cronkite.

In my personal opinion, journalism is not even a qualified work. Despite it being studied in universities it seems all skills the person needs in order to execute journalist obligations properly are normal memory, perfect knowledge of the language (at least the official one), and the ability to collect the information related to the necessary topic from the proper sources by interviews. It's hard to understand what hardships any journalism student gets if all the person needs to know is how to describe the events fairly and truthfully enough.
This columnist literally says most of the educational material in journalism schools is worthless and unneeded. Also, he says he can be judged by his peers because of the simpleton articles he wrote. The statistical viewer will not understand if the article's author does write the text using unique and rare notions. So some articles can be smaller than a high school essay. It depends on the newspaper, of course, but some yellow press can meet this statement.
In conclusion, almost everyone can perform such a job but most real and qualified journalists can't perform the work of some difficulty which can be met rarely and can be related to the greatest editions of the state. The difficulty of the hardest journalist works hinges on text volume and other factors. But in most cases, anyone excluding mentally underdeveloped people can work as a columnist as well. But definitely not in the most popular editions.

I am here as a mother researching Journalism for my daughter as a possible career she's mentioned thinking about.

I like what you said about studies. That is true for all academics and the education system all over the world follows this way. What's the point if we are going to teach history as a subject in schools in order to remember and learn from the past but we don't show our youths what the future could be. Like a Future studies class. All the possibilities and dreams we could pursue while evolving and breaking away from the old.

I'm an amateur historian and this spring I contacted a reporter about some research that I did. I also had documents proving that a local college broke NAGPRA laws. My story became a three day front page story. USA Today even considered running it but backed out last minute. Anyways the reporter I worked with, who is also the head of storytelling, he told me that he wants to sit down and discuss me becoming a reporter. So I'm researching what it takes to be a good journalist.

Now even those who couldn't do it before will be able to pronounce the world journalism

Nome Chomsky would recommend you stop reading the economist.

And I would add, unless it’s for the 50c words.

It's so ironic that you talk so much about journalistic integrity but can't seem to see through the absurd and blatant lies of the left and the WEF. Wow! Orwell kinda stuff right there. Black is white and white is black I guess.

All he is saying is inspiring and all but I think he hasn't slept for days and is extremely caffeinated. That proves he is a journalist.

Albert Einstein said make it so easy that even a 3 years old could understand. Catch new eyes too. Really enjoyed this video, thanks!

I really love when a journalist goes out of their way to use words absolutely nobody uses. Really shows me who to avoid reading

If objectivity is a myth, why is fairness not? Arent these two, 'objectivity' and 'fairness', equally aspirational concepts that we try to aim for because they make our livea better?

wooow thats a very good insight and i can only thank you for this!

Unrelated to the video but I love that shirt

I currently do sports photos for my local newspaper and am hopefully gonna start writing stories for them too! I 100% agree with the photojournalist bias. My paper will only run photos with our home team as the main focus. Their favorites of mine are always the ones that make our players look heroic almost. There’s ones of football I’ve done where I’m behind our player with the ball and he’s looking forward past the opposing defenders. I can crop it a certain way to focus on our guy while making the opposing team visible but definitely not where your eye goes first. Its important to look at possible bias in photos as well as in the text!

You could make a video about literally anything and i'll be ecstatic to watch it and learn from you
