The document discusses a mass shooting that occurred in Carson City, Nevada. The author believes people are fascinated by murderers because we try to understand what differentiates their brains from normal people. They also question what mental illness, if any, could have caused the shooter's extreme actions, noting that conditions like depression and bipolar disorder are common and unlikely sole causes. The author hopes for a better understanding of the psychological and physiological factors that create murderers.
The document discusses news values in practice based on analyzing radio bulletins and their stories. It finds that most bulletins contained negative stories which have wider appeal. Stories were professional, unambiguous, used short simple sentences and proper structure. They often featured elite persons or nations to make stories more interesting. Breaking news was usually first to grab attention as the most unexpected and impactful. Local stories about proximity, predictability and continuity were also common.
Hard news refers to current, impactful stories involving issues like politics, crime, or war. Examples include armed robberies or the war in Afghanistan. Soft news covers more lighthearted topics like celebrity or entertainment stories, such as a musician recording a charity single or an athlete getting injured. News values are criteria that determine what makes a story newsworthy and which audience it should target. Some key values identified in 1965 include frequency, impact, clarity, relevance, and proximity of an event to the target culture. Elite nations and people also tend to receive more coverage.
This document discusses the qualities needed for effective investigative journalism. It outlines that investigative journalists need passion for truth, curiosity, initiative, logical thinking, flexibility, strong teamwork and communication skills, well-developed reporting abilities, broad general knowledge, determination, and patience to conduct thorough investigations that serve the public interest. The document also provides examples of how journalists can generate story ideas from their own experiences, conversations, routine fact-checking, published news, and unverified tips that then require further investigation.
The document discusses lying and deception from several perspectives. It provides definitions of lying and notes that people typically lie one to two times per day, usually about feelings, preferences, and opinions. Philosophers like Plato, Augustine, and Kant generally held that lying is wrong, though Plato allowed for exceptions. The size of the neocortex correlates with deception rates in primates. Polygraphs measure stress, not deception directly, and their accuracy is limited.
Galtung and Ruge developed a theory of news values in 1973 that argued certain criteria make events more newsworthy and likely to be reported, including frequency, size, simplicity, familiarity, relevance, unexpectedness, continuity, balance, reference to elite nations and people, personalization, and negativity. They believed what constitutes news is culturally determined but should not vary too much globally. An example is celebrity gossip being seen as more newsworthy than children dying in an accident. The 12 most significant news values from their work include factors like short-term events being preferred over long-term issues and bad news having a lower threshold than good news.
This document discusses several factors that influence what stories and events are deemed newsworthy and selected for coverage in the news media. It examines concepts like news values, audience interests, gatekeeping, bias, ideology and consensus.
News values that determine newsworthiness include frequency, negativity, unexpectedness, personalization, reference to elite nations/persons, conflict and continuity. The audience also influences the news through their interest in stories that signal risk, threat or relevance to their security, prosperity or well-being.

This document discusses the unclear situation caused by wildfires and smoke in Oregon combined with the COVID-19 pandemic. It notes that many things are not fully understood due to lack of complete information. It also suggests that on an individual level, people often do not like to admit mistakes or see situations from other perspectives, preventing appropriate responses, and that seeking out true information is important. Finally, it warns of evolving mind control techniques and advocates developing self-love and new positive habits to promote freedom and balance.
Galtung and Ruge identified 12 news values in 1965 that are still commonly referred to today. These values determine whether a story will be considered newsworthy and pass through the "gatekeeping" process to be included in news coverage. Some of the key values they identified include frequency (recent events are prioritized over long-term events), threshold (the scale or impact of the event), unexpectedness (stories that occur unexpectedly without warning), and negativity (bad news tends to attract more interest than good news). When applying these theories to a local newspaper, the document suggests frequency, threshold, unexpectedness, and negativity would be particularly important values, and may result in stories about local sporting events, fires claiming lives,
How to handle sensitive issues in news reportingJimi Kayode
News is an essential part of modern societies that allows people to understand events and issues. There is no single definition of news, but it generally refers to a timely account of an event, issue, or person that interests audiences. Key attributes of newsworthiness include timeliness, impact, prominence, proximity, uniqueness, human interest. When reporting on sensitive issues involving race, ethnicity or religion, journalists have a responsibility to get facts right and represent all sides fairly to avoid inflaming tensions. Checklists for responsible reporting of sensitive issues include ensuring a story is true, fair, and will make a difference rather than spread rumors.
This document discusses lying and research. It defines lying and deception, examines different views on whether lying is always wrong, and explores types of academic dishonesty like plagiarism and fabrication. It emphasizes the importance of not lying in research due to consequences like damaging trust, hindering autonomy, and violating principles of veracity. The Office of Research Integrity is identified as the agency responsible for investigating potential cases of fraudulent scientific research.
This document discusses theories of news values and what constitutes news. It outlines Galtung and Ruge's original 12 news values from 1965, including frequency, threshold, lack of ambiguity, meaningfulness, predictability, unpredicatability, continuing news, and compositional value. It then discusses criticisms of this framework for being too focused on international news and ignoring domestic news coverage. Harcup and O'Neill updated Galtung and Ruge's model in 2001 to include 10 news values that are more contemporary, like celebrity and entertainment. The document analyzes both frameworks and notes news values are limited tools that do not fully explain how the news is reported and can reflect underlying ideologies.
The document discusses news values, which are criteria used by journalists and news editors to determine what stories are most newsworthy and should receive prominent coverage. Some of the key news values mentioned include proximity, recency, currency, continuity, uniqueness, simplicity, expectedness, elite nations/people, exclusivity, and size. The higher a news story scores on these values, the more likely it is to receive prominent placement or coverage. However, news judgment is also subjective, and different outlets may prioritize stories differently based on their own standards and audience.
The document discusses several factors that affect what news is reported, including prominence, human interest, impact and proximity, timeliness, and conflict. Prominence refers to how well-known a person is - an event involving a celebrity will get more coverage than the same event involving an average person. Human interest focuses on appealing to viewers' emotions and curiosity, prioritizing unusual or impactful stories. The relevance of a news story to its intended audience also influences its coverage, with local news focusing more on local issues. More recent events are generally considered more newsworthy. Conflict between groups or individuals provides entertainment value in reporting opposing viewpoints.
News values are general guidelines used by media outlets to determine how prominently to report a story. There are eight main news values: (1) timeliness - recent events are prioritized; (2) proximity - local stories rank higher; (3) impact - stories affecting many people are prioritized; (4) controversy - debates and opposing viewpoints increase interest; (5) magnitude - significance in scale or potential impact; (6) prominence - involvement of famous individuals; (7) currency - stories people are currently discussing; and (8) oddity/novelty - unusual events capture attention. Media outlets use these criteria to evaluate newsworthiness.
The bystander effect occurs when the presence of others inhibits an individual from helping someone in need. The greater the number of bystanders, the less likely it is that any one of them will help. According to the document, as more people witness an emergency, each individual is less likely to take responsibility and intervene. Examples are given of incidents where many people failed to help victims in distress, including the murder of Catherine Genovese and the death of a toddler run over by vans in China.

An "ordinary" spectator watches suffering as spectacle, while an "ideal" spectator feels appropriate compassion and wants to help. Three types of disaster news are adventure news, which doesn't engage viewers; ecstatic news, which shocks viewers; and emergency news, which creates empathy by explaining suffering and solutions. The "CNN effect" is the belief that media coverage influences foreign policy by pressuring humanitarian interventions. Realists are skeptical that foreign policy prioritizes national interests over media-
The document discusses journalism ethics and how journalists should approach sensitive topics and stories. It emphasizes seeking the truth, minimizing harm, acting independently, being accountable, and covering difficult stories like suicide or disabilities in a sensitive manner. Journalists are encouraged to show compassion to victims, respect privacy, and deliver facts in an unbiased way when reporting on topics like crime or tragedies.
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.

This document outlines an ethical code of conduct for a television news station. It discusses five main principles: [1] Seeking truth and reporting it by verifying all sources and facts; [2] Minimizing harm by showing compassion especially for children and victims; [3] Avoiding sensationalism and overdramatization; [4] Taking responsibility and being accountable for any mistakes or misinformation; and [5] Reducing stereotyping of minorities by focusing on contributing factors rather than ethnicity. The code aims to present news truthfully, objectively and in a way that considers the impact on people's lives.

Analyzing for Bias
Identifying implicit arguments and acknowledging a creator’s background
People are Biased Against Bias
Bias has a bad reputation, and while there are many good reasons for this, some of them are misguided. How come? Well, we are all biased in one way or another - we all have our own backgrounds, economic, racial, social and so on, and those things make up who we are, influence our preferences, and color how we see the world, which is generally pretty great!
If you’re waiting for a “however…” you’re in luck! HOWEVER, the problem with bias is that it involves a prejudice that is usually unfair or skews the truth so that it aligns with a person’s worldview. This isn’t much of a problem if it influences your personal preferences for things like the kinds of fruit you like, your favorite sports team, or music, etc. HOWEVER…
The Problem with Bias
When it gets applied to concepts like “the truth” or influences someone’s perception of whole groups of people unfairly, that’s prejudice (literally, judging someone in advance, without the facts).
Bias is at the root of all kinds of problems: politicians lying to their supporters, journalists skewing facts, police saying someone committed a crime (when they have no proof), redlining, discrimination in hiring – these actions are all influenced by bias.
Let’s Focus on Bias in the Media
Bias in the media is often (not always!) one of the easier forms of bias to identify. As media outlets become more polarized, they’ve developed biases that let them appeal to certain groups of consumers. This is fairly apparent in news outlets like MSNBC and Fox News.
In the following chart, taken from “AllSides Media Bias Ratings,” we see a spectrum from left to right. What’s interesting to note is that even the chart is biased! Why? Because a person or group of people made it. That doesn’t mean we have to toss it out or that it’s “wrong.” It’s a matter of perspective. Have a look:
Many people mistakenly read “center” as meaning “no bias.” It’s an easy trap to fall into, but the center also has a point of view it’s championing.
It might help to think of it this way: the left and the right are biased in favor of some kind of change, while the center caters to the status quo, or the way things currently are.
Where’s the Center?
What one person views as “the center” might be the same as another person. For example, someone from Europe, which has a different media ecosystem, might view many of the outlets in “the center” as being further right, ditto the two “left” columns.
But for the most part, all of these outlets report more or less “the facts.” It’s actually fairly uncommon to find something totally made up in any of these types of major sources. That doesn’t, however, mean they are always reliable!
As we’ll see in the pop quiz in a few pages (ungraded!), bias can usually be found in how an outlet covers a story, and what they choose to cover. Sometimes facts are omitted,.

Here are a few ways traders use moving averages in stock trading:
- Crossover trading - Buying when a short-term average crosses above a longer-term average, indicating an uptrend, and selling when the short-term average crosses below the longer-term average.
- Support and resistance - Moving averages act as dynamic support and resistance levels. Price bounces off the averages or stalls at them. Traders look to buy on bounces off the averages or sell as price approaches them.
- Trend following - Traders determine the overall trend by looking at whether price stays consistently above or below the moving averages. They trade in the direction of the trend.
- Pullback entries - When price pulls
This document provides definitions and examples of key terms related to journalism, ethics, and news reporting. It defines terms such as objectivity, timeliness, proximity, conflict, brainstorming, random sample, filter question, fair comment, composite characters, libel, right of reply, plagiarism, privileged statements, in loco parentis, and prior restraint. Visual examples such as news articles, comics, and images are provided alongside many of the definitions to illustrate the concepts.
The document discusses lying and deception. It begins by providing results from studies on lying, finding that community members lied in one-fifth of interactions and students lied in one-third. Most lies were small deceptions or exaggerations. While some lies damage relationships, others fulfill important social functions like smoothing over awkward situations. The document examines the prevalence and social functions of "white lies" and discusses the consequences of lying, including damaged trust between individuals.
While journalists should seek the truth, certain considerations around privacy and minimizing harm are also important. When reporting on celebrities, details may be probed further due to public interest, while stories involving children should treat them with more respect. What is reported also depends on the audience - reports on issues directly affecting a community aim for the greater good, while coverage by networks owned by corporations can promote their owners' interests. Downplaying some facts can boost morale but risks misleading readers, so each case requires careful judgment around newsworthiness and ethics.

3. HUNCHES AND INTUITION
Melvin Melcher
Hunches and intuition can lead reporters to good stories.
These insights do not come out of the blue. They are the result
of wide and varied background knowledge and an
understanding of the behavior of people. The ill-prepared
reporter does not have hunches.
Feelings and emotions can distort observations and
influence writing. But they also can lead reporters to uncover
abuses and illegalities. Reporters monitor their feelings and
opinions, and they make sure to avoid stereotypes in their
reporting and writing. The reporter with fixed pictures in mind of
people and groups produces distorted reporting.
4. Close-up Good stories are composed from on-the-scene
observation. The reporter witnesses accounts unfold and
emergency personnel reacting to the events.
Focus on the Impact of Your Story
5. Emergency Communication
What is an accident? What is a disaster? What is a crisis? What do they have in
common? They are not planned.
When something drastic happens in America, many times it affects the nation as a
whole. When a large accident occurs it creates an interest to find out how it happened, to
whom and why. When a disaster happens people want to find out what happened and
how it can be remedied or helped. When a crisis happens it affects people from
everywhere and often leaves everyone bewildered.
But the stories need to be told. Curiosity is a natural feeling and the public will dig and
dig, until they find out as much information as they can.
Many times stories are told to help overcome the fear caused by what occurred. Other
times it is to share the news of an event.
Here is a short guide to follow before information is divulged to the public.
The first information that is demanded is the number of injured, dead or those affected.
The human toll is more important than property damage, so be sure to have that figure
readily available.
People want to know what caused the event. Was it terrorism, was it an accident, was
it storm? If you don’t know the answer, don’t guess or make assumptions. Get the facts
and tell the facts only.
Audiences want eyewitness reports. Gather eyewitness accounts of the event. Many
times the eyewitness can give a lot of information.
Finally, include any warnings the public needs to be aware of or advised.
This is just the starting point for your story, so make sure you do plenty of research to get
the 5 w’s and how.
Tell your story. Tell the truth. And state the facts.
