Ittasks often claimed that without good journalism, we wouldntaskt have an informed public. But the question arises as to what makes good journalism today, when the public is increasingly taskinformedtask through more immediate, visual media, such as the Internet, satellite and cable twenty-four-hour news channels. We asked several people of different ages to tell us what their attitude towards journalism and journalists is. Here is what they had to say.

Recent events have put journalism in the spotlight and there are lessons to be learned from this. Ittasks obvious that journalists have not been doing a very good job of educating the public about what they do and why they do it the way they do. We spend too much time talking amongst ourselves, just assuming that our motives and methodology will be generally understood and appreciated.

I think there are bad journalists, just like there are bad hair stylists and bad architects and bad funeral directors; but the overwhelming majority of journalists are out to do a good job because they believe that what they are doing is important - getting good information, reporting accurately and fairly, telling the truth. Of course, journalists make mistakes like any other professionals whose jobs entail making dozens of judgement calls and decisions every day. But the key thing is that good journalists acknowledge their mistakes and correct them.

Last year at school I learned that journalism was the key to understanding the media and it should always show the facts in an unbiased way. I think now, with the commercialisation of television media, most journalism has been reduced to the standard of the tabloids. And journalists? You should consider a profession that you will not need to apologise for being a member of.

Most of us tend to be highly critical of journalism today, especially given that the past couple of years have not been a good time for journalism ethics. There have been far too many examples of flawed reporting and bad judgement. Thattasks all true, but we must remember one simple fact: people are always anxious to seek out the media when it works to their advantage, but quick to find fault when the press covers something they dontaskt want to talk about.

Ittasks really easy to say what makes a good journalist. But there are grey areas when it comes to what a journalistic situation is. For example, talk show hosts of almost all kinds are not generally journalists and that is not a problem as long as they are clear about it. When some talk show hosts try to taskborrowtask the credentials of journalism to make their statements carry the weight earned by years of honest reporting by real journalists, I have a problem with that.
