Aren't journalists supposed to be neutral? How can they maintain their objectivity if they are rabid fans of one side of the political coin or the other? |
Actually no. That is the difference between a journalist and a reporter. A reporter is supposed to report the facts while a journalist is supposed to report their interpretations and observations of the event.
Although the terms are used without discipline these days, there is a difference between a journalist and a reporter.
I remember getting dinged in my J classes for just reporting the facts.
