Conspiracy Theories and Explanations
This document defines conspiracy theories and discusses what makes for a justified conspiracy theory. It notes that to be justified, a conspiracy theory should have low reliance on eyewitness testimony and pass tests for a good explanation. A good explanation should be simple, falsifiable, and the hypothesis must be testable by determining what other observations would be expected if the explanation were correct rather than just because it is the only explanation available. Examples are provided of explanations that fail these tests.
Evaluation : Logical Fallacy (Insufficient Evidence)
This document discusses logical fallacies of insufficient evidence. It defines fallacies as arguments containing mistakes in reasoning. Specifically, it examines fallacies of insufficient evidence where premises do not provide enough support for the conclusion. Examples given include appeals to unqualified authority, ignorance, false alternatives, loaded questions, false causes, generalizations, slippery slopes, weak analogies, and inconsistencies. The document stresses that a fallacy does not necessarily mean the conclusion is false, only that the argument supporting it contains flawed reasoning.
Chapter 18: Ethics Issues Specific to Digital Journalism - JNL-2105 - Journal...
This presentation teaches journalism students to handle ethical issues specific to digital media. It describes how to verify information and visuals posted on social media, to handle hate speech posted online, to behave professionally on Facebook, and to link or embed to help attribute. Professor Linda Austin prepared it for her JNL-2015 Journalism Ethics students at the National Management College in Yangon, Burma, in August 2015. It goes with Chapter 18: Ethics Issues Specific to Web Journalism of The Ethical Journalist, by Gene Foreman.
Ethics in journalism
The document discusses ethics in journalism according to the Society of Professional Journalists' Code of Ethics. It outlines 10 fundamental rules for journalists: 1) Don't fabricate information, 2) Don't plagiarize, 3) Use exact quotes accurately, 4) Avoid conflicts of interest, 5) Be fair and neutral, 6) Identify yourself as a journalist, 7) Use anonymous sources sparingly and disclose their identities to editors, 8) Follow recording protocol laws, 9) Admit mistakes promptly, and 10) Have fun. Adhering to these ethical standards helps ensure journalistic integrity and credibility.
Journalism Ethics
Public trust in the media has declined, with polls showing only 32% trust media to report accurately and 55% of voters believing journalists are biased against Trump. A study found 90% of journalist donations went to Hillary Clinton, and WikiLeaks emails showed coordination between reporters and Clinton's campaign. While some criticize excessive focus on Clinton's emails, others argue media was too soft on her and sensationalized certain stories to boost sales.
PSEWEB 2016: Tragedy, Twitter and Pitchforks: Managing Campus Crises on Socia...
This document discusses managing social media crises on campus. It begins by listing examples of social crises including racial tensions, viral events, weather events, and campus shootings. It then discusses the need to monitor various social media platforms, have clear communication protocols and response plans, and define different types of issues along a spectrum of severity from annoyances to crises requiring immediate response. The document provides advice on responding directly and deflecting criticism on social media during challenging times. It emphasizes the importance of being human, understanding, and communicating calming, reassuring messages during a crisis. It also stresses the importance of self-care and social support for social media managers.
Appeal to force
The document discusses the logical fallacy of appeal to force (also known as argumentum ad baculum), where a person is threatened with unpleasant consequences if they do not agree with the proposition. It provides examples of how this fallacy can be used in politics, such as threats of being seen as unpatriotic or allowing further loss of liberties if one does not support a particular policy or candidate. While threats can be persuasive, the appeal to force fallacy is logically unsound because the truth or falsity of the proposition is unrelated to any threats made against those who disagree.

What is fake news by Dean Berry
This document discusses evaluating evidence and determining the credibility of information sources. It provides examples of different types of evidence from personal testimonies to scientific studies and emphasizes the importance of considering evidence from reliable sources. Readers are encouraged to be skeptical of claims unless they are supported by solid evidence and to have an open mind when considering new information rather than avoiding facts that contradict preexisting beliefs. Critical thinking skills are important for separating facts from fiction.
Hillary Clinton Case Study
The passage discusses the concept of hostile media bias, where people perceive bias against their own viewpoint even when the media source is objective. Researchers have found this is due to two mechanisms: 1) partisans evaluating the fairness of facts and arguments differently based on their ideology, and 2) partisans remembering more negative statements about their side and positive statements about the opposing side. The hostile media effect has far-reaching consequences and is an important factor influencing perceptions of media bias.

Ashford 5 Week 4 Instructor Guidance News Coverag.docx
Ashford 5: Week 4 Instructor Guidance
News Coverage Galore!
In Week 4, you’ll continue to amass advice on refining your reporting skills. Do the assigned reading, and
you’ll see that obituaries, news releases, and the basic news stories all rely on one thing—sound news
judgment!
The Deal on the Obituary Piece
One of my jobs at ABC News was slightly peculiar. I’m glad you’re sitting down! I wrote obituary summaries,
called obits, in 2005. The catch? They were for people who were still alive! The purpose was to provide
onepage life summaries for famous people. In the event of an unexpected death, the network would have
ready access to the most important facts about the person’s life; the media organization would not be caught
off guard and could break/report the news using the obit information right away. I recall writing obits for the
likes of Michael Jackson, Hillary Clinton, Ted Kennedy, and the former President of Pakistan. Unfortunately,
you can see that the need for even obituary summaries for the living is real.
What is the overarching point here? An obituary is about the person’s life! It should offer a rundown of what
the person accomplished while alive, preferably in the order of chronology or significance. Details such as
the manner of death or scandals are not essential and should be handled with caution. Make sure you are
familiar with your organization’s policy on obituaries, because what reporters are expected to omit or include
can vary throughout the media.
Can you see why obituaries are ideal for the inverted pyramid structure? Also, I strongly advise you to
triplecheck the spelling of the person’s name. This is one simple instance where more than your credibility
will be at stake in the event of inaccuracy.
News Releases: Love them or Hate Them?
Personally, I have grown to love them! And trust me, you will too, especially on exceptionally slow news
days. You just have to be able to read between the lines. Like News Reporting & Writing says, the news
releases that journalists are provided with are usually very selfserving. Thinking of them as press releases
will help you to avoid falling for the trap of reporting the release as a means of free publicity. Knowing what
the sender hopes to gain from the media coverage that they are eliciting is important.
The news releases I appreciate most are those centered on announcements or causes. They are your news
plug for timeliness and relevance! The trick now is to take the plug and utilize it to turnover a report that
advances an underlying story.
For example, I once got a news release from a local nonprofit announcing the coming of World Aids Day in
December and detailing the rally planned. Reporting this alone would have qualified as a story by some
accounts, but journalists must take it a step further. In turn, I researched, coming to learn of the rapidly rising
numbers of women in monogamous relationships with HIV in.
Research Paper Proposal Guideline - Write My Resea
This document discusses India changing its patent laws in 1972 to allow domestic production of drugs that were patented by multinational pharmaceutical companies, enabling India's economy and pharmaceutical industry to grow substantially. It led to lower drug prices and improved access to medicines for citizens. However, multinational companies argue this harmed innovation, and current trade agreements are strengthening patent protection again in India. There is an ongoing debate around balancing innovation, public health, and domestic industry development.
