MY TURN: Journalistic integrity versus propaganda

| December 15, 2023 1:00 AM

Our journey in life can bring us front and center with individuals who seek to injure others, oftentimes being injured individuals themselves. They burden other people with mean-spiritedness, dishonesty and cruelty, sometimes because they’ve yet to heal their own psychological injuries. Such people will present mischaracterizations of others while they present a biased and colored version of reality in general. These individuals lack integrity.

When claiming to be journalists, these impostors want you to believe their biases and deception to be fact-based; the dynamics driving their messages avoids journalistic integrity. While there may be a bit of truth in their message, they are mere bloggers who promote propaganda and bias for fame, attention and financial gain at the expense of the well-being of others.
