English 5, Critical Thinking

We'll begin by looking at two reporters that have gained fame by falsifying stories. Stephen Glass worked for The New Republic and you can read about him in this Forbes article or on The Cheating Cultureweb site. Jayson Blair worked for The New York Times. He is also listed on The Cheating Cultureweb site. Here is an additional article on Jayson Blair. I'd also like you to look at this article regarding journalistic integrity. Journalism.org has a very thorough examination of media. Take a look at points that interest you from their report "The State of the News Media," which is linked from their home page. If you find any interesting articles during your exploration of the web, please post them in the comments section of the blog or email me and I'll post for you. Enjoy.
