Given we have social media where many people are updated by the news almost every minute, unlike before we rely in news broadcast and night and the daily paper. Does modern journalists and media companies sacrifice their accuracy for speed? ]]> 2021-05-02 15:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482633829 joshmick101 https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482637300  good you bring up that topic, especially wherein we are in the age were everything is so fast thanks to the internet. in Journalism we have these set of standards and principles we abide by in doing our work as journalist. ]]> 2021-05-02 15:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482637300 arevalojarod https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482637766  but what are these set standard and principles you guys abide by? ]]> 2021-05-02 15:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482637766 joshmick101 https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638039  its what we call Journalism ethics, and its what we follow. Principles like Independence, fairness and impartiality, humanity and many more, but in your question, that you had raised it talks more about our principle of truth and accuracy. Us being reporters must get the facts right, and always strive for accuracy, and be able to give all facts, and ensure these facts are checked. ]]> 2021-05-02 15:58:01 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638039 arevalojarod https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638327  what could happen if you fail to deliver truth and accurate news? Could it lead to harm in anyway? ]]> 2021-05-02 15:58:11 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638327 joshmick101 https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638550  That is what we call Misinformation, which is false inaccurate or misleading information, which may cause panic and disorder especially if it is regarding very important news, which is why we should always be truth and accurate as journalist, because we do not want to cause harm. ]]> 2021-05-02 15:58:21 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638550 arevalojarod https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638933  but then again how can Media/News companies be able to produce accurate information while also being quick to publish them? are they sacrificing accuracy? For the speed of information? ]]> 2021-05-02 15:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482638933 joshmick101 https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482639335 what you mentioned is a common dilemma journalist face today, that can accuracy be compromised for speed, if so to what extent? In the digital era accuracy per se we can say is not good enough, because we must deliver information available at that very time to make it relevant to its audiences, but in todays accuracy and speed can be achieved, as long as there is sufficient verification tools and capacity. ]]> 2021-05-02 15:58:50 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482639335 arevalojarod https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482639549  but for you josh, what is more important speed or accuracy? ]]> 2021-05-02 15:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482639549 joshmick101 https://padlet.com/arevalojarod/8av91a1ck94qnl77/wish/1482639794  
Accuracy is more important, its our part of our ethics in journalism. ideally, we should be fast while not sacrificing news accuracy. But if we had to choose, we would choose accuracy.
