Christina Karaoli Taylor, Multicultural Competency Trainer, CKT Cultural Strategies: “I challenge you [journalists] to stop thinking in terms of objective journalism. We’ll discuss why that’s not really feasible anymore.”
Ron Treviño, CBS Houston News Anchor: “I don’t really care if people trust us or not, we still have to do our job. Whether they trust us is the least of my concerns -- whether they trust me or not.”
Grady Tripp, Tegna Chief Diversity Officer: “At this point, if you’re not listening to a podcast, or looking at a video, or reading any of the information that’s out as far as equality and social justice and race, you don’t care…The other thing is we’re going to be holding stations accountable, right? We’re going to be holding stations accountable because we know it’s important to the organization. KPIs [Key Performance Indicators] are going to change, right? KPIs are going to reflect diversity and inclusion from a representation standpoint.”
Brett Mauser, Former CBS San Antonio Promotions Producer and Whistleblower: “I don’t want to destroy the news. I don’t want anybody to get fired. I want people to change and realize that they are supposed to be objective.”
Mauser: “Teaching journalists at a national level, ‘Don’t be objective.’ To me, that was what journalism always was: to be objective. In my mind, if journalism is not objective, it’s not journalism -- it’s propaganda.”
Mauser: “This mindset has been able to grow and infect what was supposed to be the fourth pillar of society. The journalists are supposed to be our watchdogs. They’re the ones that are supposed to be protecting us from tyranny and supposed to be going out there and finding out and giving us the truth.”

The thing is, this won’t see the light of day in terms of where Dem voters get their “news”.
Walter Lipmann promulgated a myth. The emperor has clothes.
local media is a government allowed and directed corporate monopoly
Its not about news. Its state-run propaganda outlets.
In the late 90s I spent several months working at the School of Journalism at Columbia University in Manhattan. My work was not academic, but blue collar communications work. During this period I had the opportunity to speak with many different students. Whenever I asked why they had chosen journalism their answer was invariably, “I want to make a difference.”
If you watch the game show, “Jeopardy” when they have those sharp college kids on, the ones that are studying journalism, when asked “Why?” always answer the same.
It seems that the main goal of these future journalists is NOT to witness and write the first draft of history, rather they wish to INFLUENCE the consumers of their product to agree with whatever ideology they wish to promote.
Yup
Part of why i was on paper in college was many of my friends were in journalism and were going after spots on the paper to build up their experience before applying for real jobs later on...
Many later dropped out of their career fields entirely because their own liberal naivete was shattered when they spent a few years seeing what really went on in an actual newsroom.
By age 20 I was listening to Rush L. and already saw what was going on in the college paper newsroom, they were still idealists and wanted to make a difference, they all thought smearing conservatives/Republicans was how they would make that difference, and most were women and feminists and the media went severely gynocentric
They had rude awakenings. They’d write a straight article, then their editors would modify it and put their political twist on it. The ones with more independent thinking left, they didn’t want their names on the articles after the agenda changes the editors applied.
Glad to see that Project Veritas is still powering ahead
in spite of DOJ persecution.
Frauds, all of them.
The arrogance...
No, journalists are not the "last hope of liberty". That is the job of every American citizen. Citizenship in our free republic is a full time job. It is up to every citizen to defend their nation from tyranny and seek truth and justice.
