I never really considered this weeks in class topic/ presentation as a Journalists responsibility before now but I suppose its true. It is to share news they find with the world. With all the changing ways news is told in the world today we must share our talents with the world as well in global coverage of large events. now a days with the with the demand for speed and news, journalists have to be careful before blurting out incorrect info on tweeter that isn’t accurate or posting a video on youtube that hasn’t had it’s sources checked. They need to be careful about the things they post. being fast at reporting does not outweigh accuracy when it comes to the news. when they’re trying to keep up with the fast pace of the world today be clear and accurate!
Here is a interesting article about the topic
