Journalism

The book Media Essentials discusses how advancements in technology have changed the way news is presented. From newspaper to broadcast, the format of how news circulates has lead many to question if the information published in the daily newspaper is the same information televised on network stations.

Glass committed an error and he fabricated about the bar tender in his article, Kelly even did not talk about the ethical responsibility of journalism. He also didn’t consider to take some accountability charge for fabricating even small piece of entire article. Sparing Glass’s small fabrication was a big motivation to his big desire to shine brightly in journalism industry.
