On Journalism Ethics

Do the few who control dissemination of most political information,
enjoy relatively disproportionate levels of influence,
than the many who don’t?

.
The world is ruled only by consideration of advantages.

Friedrich von Schiller
Can business and/or political interests
negatively affect investigative journalism,
by sheltering some from inhospitable exposure,
while simultaneously disparaging opponents?
The partisan,
when engaged in a dispute,
cares nothing about the rights of the question,
but is anxious only to convince his hearers of his own assertions.

Plato
