As a Journalism student, you have no idea how helpful your thoughts are. It made me realize a lot of stuff in my future field, I'm grateful for this video, thank you so much!
@@vokoaxecer elements of journalism is a good one. (Bill Kovach & Tom Rosensteil). Louis Theroux’s autobiography gives you a good insight into interviewing people
Your style of journalism, filmmaking, storytelling - whatever you want to call it - is definitely one of my favourites that I've come across. You can tell that you put a lot of thought and effort into all your videos and it definitely makes your channel stand out from the crowd. Looking forward to those zesty videos coming out in the near future!
We don't need the speed increase on archival footage but so far ok video. Weird shirt too but that's being petty. Facts seem good. Information seems solid
Your Borders episode on the Morocco-EU border inspired my Master's dissertation last year and this year, I graduated at the top of my class, with the dissertation being an important part of that. So thank you, Johnny, for doing what you do. Whether or not you call it journalism, it's definitely inspiring and elevating.
I am just a dude from Sweden, but i have to say that you are my favorite private journalist. People like you are needed in this day of age, when polarization is a daily word. It is scary to see what is happening with journalists around the globe, getting threatened and sometimes even murdered. I respect you for what you are doing, and thankful for what you are teaching me. Be careful, it is hard to tell the truth.
My favourite journalism to read or watch is journalism that reads like a story, often taking its time to describe the situation in a way that helps me empathise with the people it is about. These are the stories that I remember and the ones that affect me the most, and the ones that encourage me to think about the issue and research it further.
As a journalist, I agree with all of these. I think that number 2 is a good reminder, especially when you’re constantly surrounded by your peers. It’s easy to forget most people don’t spend most hours of the day consuming media.
I think that most people do spend most hours of the day consuming media, especially right now. The problem is the kind of media that is being consumed by the masses. Most media is either dumbed down and created to divide people to one extreme or another, or created to entertain people for extended periods of time. If the media wasn't so focused on turning heads/ getting the most views I think we all would be much better off.
@@sunnyday8989 not only that, we love to generalize media as strictly print. We consume various forms of media: this video we watched, shows on TV, the music you listen to, podcasts, books, etc. “The media” is consistently mislabeled and only depicted as journalistic writing - it’s not. And I think that’s a very interesting thing to consider.
As someone "stuck" in journalism school, I really appreciate this and your videos. Sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy in here but then I get to read and write stuff that I really believe in and I feel a whole lot better.
As a journalism student in the UK there's a lot I agree with here. I think the most important part of this video was its commentary on how news media owners monetize journalism. I get most of my general news from the Guardian and the BBC because I know that advertising incentives won't be a factor and you can see how that becomes an issue when you read papers like the Sun or watch any American broadcast news - they're so concerned with profit that everything becomes sensationalised, leading to tropes such as "never let the facts get in the way of a good story". If you want quality news, you're not going to get it for free.
Guardian does not run ads but it’s far from being a good faith news reporting organization. There was a time when it was a great newspaper but I think they have simply chosen to play the game of mindlessly taking sides like almost every other newspaper.
@@nandakumar8936 Look at most British reporting scandals where newspapers have come under fire or been found guilty of wrongdoing and/or immoral practices.The Guardian's pretty much the only one major newspaper that's never usually in the stink on that, yet they still break brilliant and important stories
@@adamdickinson2894 agreed but there’s more to what makes a newspaper good or bad these days. For one good piece of work, there’s 10 opinion pieces that are hideous. The flip they did on rallying behind Biden before the election was pretty ugly. There is nothing such a newspaper stands to gain from who wins an election since there’s no big donors. A truly good newspaper should remain ideologically consistent unless there is a strong reason for changing and stop blatantly supporting individual candidates.
@@nandakumar8936 Guardian stitched up Assange like a kipper, hows that for screwing the truth and as for the BBC - why not google Panorama - that's all you'll need to know.
The man who got every bit of skill to grab audience and keep them sticking, with pure content. I mean, observe the pan in- pan out during frames with such precision. Got a lot to learn from him . Wish you great days ahead 🇮🇳
As a journalism student who's becoming super disenchanted with the monument of journalism, I really appreciate your sentiment in this video. It's really encouraging to see journalists in the field seeing the same thing I'm seeing as I come up.
I know I’m late but some of the major reasons why I love Vox and Johnny are their use of interesting infographics, maps, charts, b roll shots, etc. It helps us visualize and contextualize what we are learning rather than having to absorb the sometimes dense material without visual aids.
I am applying for an internship with the Economist. I am so heckin nervous because it is my absolute dream to work for them. I had a feeling you were going to say the Economist is your go-to. I really appreciate the fluidity of your career path, and thank you for sharing so much about how you got to where you are today. It is inspiring for me because it shows what is possible. I used to fear that journalism was dead, but then I realized journalism is not dead; instead, it is evolving. So I am hoping to make a break into the field of storytelling. Thanks for all your content!
Jargon does sometimes allow you to communicate more efficiently. It's a difficult balance to strike. I certainly think that the use of accurate and technical language shouldn't always be considered a negative. For one thing people only learn new words if they hear them being used. It's about finding a middle ground and writing appropriately for the intended audience.
Indeed, I agree with you and your claim of being "cautious" in terms of jargon. However, I do prefer simplifying the language for the great mass to fully comprehend any article. Utilitarianism in the angle of journalism should also be considered.
I will also add something else real quick while diving in it with him. Journalism most of the time do wright for their audience, however, if you are not their target audience then a lot of the words will seem like jargon. The New York Times, for instance, it is almost common knowledge among those who read continuously and journalist that their audience is between New Yorkers and Highly College Educated. However, The New York times has also become a very very well know news publication, so many people think they should "dumb" down their writing. The New York Times, being like a "New Yorker", is saying screw you to adjusting their vocabulary to fit a fickle growing audience. It hasn't complete hurt them. When you tell people you are advent reader of the New York Times, for some reason many eyes glow up and look at you with intelligence. When in reality you might hold an average college vocabulary that should be 40,000 words, which is 20,000 words above the laymen. Then you have to realize that 2/3 of America doesn't have a college education, so it sounds impressive. It is not.
As a second-year journalism student I find struggle with the traditional teachings and new journalism. I used to get so frustrated when I would keep doing fundamental and writing what’s most newsworthy instead of what excites me. All my professor took the excitement of storytelling away from me and I was considering changing my major or setting up a plan to teach myself the ethics and laws of journalism so I could do my own thing. However, this video has given me hope. I now see not my professors vision of journalism or others notions of journalism but mine: storytelling that is clear, important, and that makes me passionate. Thank you!!
it’s human nature: the want to understand. i was one of those kids who wanted to understand abt the world, and now i’m on my way to become a journalist/communicator. thankyou for being an inspiration:)
As a sociology student going into journalism this video has literally articulated everything I've been thinking about journalism the last 3 years you are a damn wizard sir
I'm an old faculty guy (stats and research methods), and I can say that this was a great video and you provided an important perspective. Great job!!! Cheers.
The entire realm of journalism/media needs to diversify, starting from the top. Facts can also be obscured, depending upon a journalist integrity. Often times-loyalties determine actions, facts or not.
I am turned off journalism for this reason. Way to many bias pieces. Yet to see a written piece discussing both sides of an argument and what/why the writer disagrees and/or agrees with. Turns me off of this career completely.
Absolutely loved this video omg. Student journalist in college here and have recently been feeling so bogged down by the tradition and customs of journalism. I feel like I’ve been facing a reckoning with what type of journalism I wanna pursue. Thanks for putting some of my thoughts into a video!
Journalism/Political Science major here, thank you for this video man! Really helped me prepare for the field I’m getting into. Your form of journalism is the kind I want to get into. It’s the best.
Totally understand what you are saying when talking about Journalism School not giving enough practical experience, but I have to say that when I was at university (less than 6 years ago) I felt that we absolutely had a dual emphasis, firstly on understanding conventions, ethics, and guidelines, and secondly on going out and writing stories, creating videos, recording audio for radio or podcasts, and generally doing the work. We certainly had it hammered into us that, if we wanted to do anything in the field after graduation, we needed a portfolio of work already completed, and that it would be the main thing that was looked at when we would be hired. And I think that learning the rules before deciding to break them is a very important step, which is something I think you (and Vox) do quite well.
I'm a student journalist and your videos are really interesting. Your exploration about objectivity is particularly interesting too. In J school we're being taught that we as journalists have a "obligation to the truth", yet fulfilling that obligation won't always mean that a reader will get both sides of a story. You obviously are aware of the Journalistic Truth and Awareness Instinct, so I'm not gonna delve in too deep yet but from my studies and readings, i've learnt that "Fairness and Balance" isn't a suitable replacement for the Journalistic Truth. I believe if more emphasis is put on the journalist truth theory within media corps. we'll have an objective media. Journalism, in the States particularly, is subject to Open Bias and has tapped into the "Bloggosphere/Twittersphere" mentality. To add, "journalists writing for peers" puts that into perspective, as that is on of David Randall's limitations of journalism that further disassociates journalism with the journalistic truth. I've taken a lot for the first 10 mins of this video. just thought i'd add something from a current journalism student.
That's really interesting to know because the objectivity question was actually one of the first things that I was thought in my journalism degree and they basically told us that it's a lie and we should aim to achieve it while being aware that we'll never reach it because it's impossible to know all the sides and to never have some sort of input there. Crazy to think how even in a formal aspect it varies a lot from place to place
I also add something else real quick while diving in it with him. Journalism most of the time do wright for their audience, however, if you are not their target audience then a lot of the words will seem like jargon. The New York Times, for instance, it is almost common knowledge among those who read continuously and journalist that their audience is between New Yorkers and Highly College Educated.

I switched my major in University from Journalism to Film after successfully studying it for 2 years. I found myself alienated with the lack of experimentation and the rigidness of faculty and their lack of knowledge with modern industry tools. The primary thing I did takeaway is how to write in CP style. I agree with many points of your critique and found myself conflicted asking similar questions. Eventually, I came to the realization that I don't need to study journalism to eventually become a video-journalists. Many of the skills I learned have a lot of value and I find them helping me in my day to day work and even across industries. My passion going into university was to be a documentary filmmaker and it remains so. I never aspired to be a full-time working journalist because I do enjoy the taking the time to research and delve into stories that offer the opportunity to go deep. Data Visualization is definitely an essential part of journalism now and moving forward. I just want to say thank you Johnny for showing that journalism can be done differently!
I currently do sports photos for my local newspaper and am hopefully gonna start writing stories for them too! I 100% agree with the photojournalist bias. My paper will only run photos with our home team as the main focus. Their favorites of mine are always the ones that make our players look heroic almost. There’s ones of football I’ve done where I’m behind our player with the ball and he’s looking forward past the opposing defenders. I can crop it a certain way to focus on our guy while making the opposing team visible but definitely not where your eye goes first. Its important to look at possible bias in photos as well as in the text!
I have been watching your Vox vids for a long time now and I just wanted to say that I got so interested in your work since the way you portray journalism was hell of a lot more approachable. I have always felt a gap with many global issues around the world since the way it often reaches to me is through the specialized terminologies that is published through journalism. With the content that you create, I am given a sense that what I’m watching and/or reading has the goal of making me understand what is going on, and making me part of the conversation. What you and the people in vox create are a version of journalism that I know is going to be huge. More power to you!
As a journalism student, I found this video very helpful and already very true from what I have seen/experienced. Talking to seasoned, new-aged journalists, many of them have talked about how all of the things we are taught are old and companies not only have changed, but so have readers. I definitely recommend reaching out and talking to current, young journalists. I've learned a lot about the business from them (including just watching this video from Johnny), than my professors (who have taught me basic editing and story structure).
"Photojournalism--presumably the least biased journalism there is." Really? I've always thought the photograph is inherently much more powerful, easier to manipulate, and harder to contextualize without words accompanying it.
@@inigojuancarlos seriously. I saw a post online that showed two pictures one that looked like the a building in the US capital was on fire. The second one showed a picture of several photographers leaning down taking a picture of a broken trash can on fire. So they were lining up the fire to make it look like the capital was on fire.
I agree. I'm a photographer... because it's a much more limited medium than text it's so easy to manipulate it into telling the story you want it to tell. And humans are visual creatures, people can have immediate and visceral reactions to pictures, and that makes photography really powerful in creating a narrative.
Agreed. Not professional but loved photography. Spent countless times finding the right angle to tell a specific story that I am more inclined to tell or can make my subject more attractive. It's honestly subjective.
Finally a journalist that gets it and has the guts to tell it like it is. Thank you for taking journalism seriously and for passing on these key observations to us viewers, current and future journalists. I quit journalism a few years ago because of the issues you mentionned, but your work is so inspiring I'm thinking I should get back in the game! Thanks for your hard work, passion and service, cheers from Vietnam!
MALAY SUBTITLES Part 5 of 6 15:47 jika diceritakan dengan baik dan disampaikan dengan baik. 15:49 Oleh itu, itu adalah harapan bagi ratapan kecil saya 15:52 mengenai ekonomi kewartawanan. 15:54 Lelaki, saya semakin dalam sekarang. 15:55 Saya semakin mendalam mengenai teori kewartawanan saya. 15:58 Yeah. Yeah. 15:59 Ini baik. Ini baik. 16:00 Mari kita pergi ke pelajaran seterusnya. 16:01 Nombor 6: "Penulisan yang baik jarang dan indah." 16:05 Apa yang saya pelajari dalam bidang kewartawanan ialah 16:06 perbezaan antara seseorang 16:08 betul-betul bersambung dengan cerita 16:09 dan tidak berhubung dengan cerita, hanya beberapa perkataan. 16:13 Penulisan yang baik, sama ada untuk video 16:15 atau artikel berdasarkan teks, boleh membawa anda ke dalam cerita. 16:19 Ia dapat menerangi topik, dapat memanusiakan watak. 16:22 Ia sangat penting. 16:23 Saya tidak pandai menulis ketika saya mula di "Vox". 16:27 Selama bertahun-tahun saya mempunyai beberapa penyunting cerita yang sangat baik 16:29 siapa yang akan melihat tulisan saya dan menolong saya 16:31 membentuk semula dan mempermudahkannya, 16:33 dan menjadikannya lebih ringkas dan membuatnya lebih jelas. 16:36 Saya berterima kasih kepada orang-orang yang mengajar saya cara menulis, 16:39 kerana, banyak video yang anda lihat di saluran ini, 16:41 ya, ada peta yang indah, dan ada rakaman mewah, 16:45 dan ada banyak tembakan drone dan apa sahaja. 16:47 Tetapi pada akhirnya, di sebalik semua itu, 16:49 sebab mengapa anda berminat untuk menonton video tersebut 16:51 adalah kerana saya mengutamakan penulisan. 16:54 Saya menghabiskan banyak masa untuk memilih kata-kata saya 16:56 supaya setiap kisah yang saya ceritakan (muzik terang) 16:58 tenggelam di sisi lain semasa anda mendengar 17:01 dan itu kerana kewartawanan yang baik 17:03 adalah penulisan yang baik pada penghujung hari. 17:05 Dan ia sangat penting. 17:07 Sekiranya anda ingin menjadi lebih baik dalam menulis, saya ada buku untuk anda. 17:09 Saya akan meletakkan pautan dalam keterangan. 17:11 Sekiranya saya terlupa, hubungi saya di komen 17:13 kerana saya tidak mahu lupa 17:14 kerana saya ingin memberitahu anda mengenai buku ini. 17:15 Maksud saya, saya boleh mengatakannya sekarang 17:17 dan kemudian anda boleh mencarinya. 17:18 Tetapi oh, tetapi jika saya memasukkannya ke dalam pautan ini dalam keterangan 17:21 Saya boleh menjadikannya pautan afiliasi, 17:22 dan kemudian saya dapat wang setiap kali anda mengkliknya. 17:25 Man, insentif ekonomi abad ke-21 17:28 hanya bermain di fikiran saya sekarang. 17:30 Oh tidak. 17:31 Baik. Pelajaran terakhir di sini, "Kewartawanan yang baik adalah penting." 17:35 Sekarang dengar saya mengenai perkara ini. (muzik elektronik yang terang) 17:36 Ini mungkin terdengar sopan, tetapi, 17:37 Selama bertahun-tahun saya belajar bahawa kewartawanan sukar. 17:40 Untuk keluar dan mengumpulkan maklumat 17:43 itu tidak wujud di dunia 17:44 dan untuk menyampaikannya ke seluruh dunia adalah sukar. 17:48 Negara kita, beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini, 17:50 telah menunjukkan betapa pentingnya saya 17:52 dan betapa baiknya kewartawanan yang baik. 17:55 Fakta tidak penting bagi banyak orang hari ini. 17:59 Dan sebelum anda mengetahuinya, 18:00 anda boleh mempunyai seseorang yang berkuasa 18:02 mencipta cerita palsu mengenai pilihan raya, 18:05 dan anda boleh mempunyai saluran berita 18:07 yang mengaku melakukan kewartawanan, 18:09 terjun dengan naratif itu 18:10 dan buat fakta untuk menyokongnya. 18:13 Itu menakutkan! 18:14 Kewartawanan yang baik, perkara di mana orang keluar 18:17 dan sebenarnya meneliti bukti 18:19 dan menyampaikan hujah yang kuat kepada khalayak 18:23 yang teliti kembali ke arah mereka, 18:25 dan ada perbincangan, wacana, 18:27 itu jarang dan istimewa. 18:29 Di sini, di Amerika Syarikat kita menyebutnya sebagai "Fourth Estate", 18:32 institusi akhbar bebas ini 18:34 yang menjadikan pemimpin kita jujur, 18:36 menjaga syarikat kami jujur, 18:39 menjaga masyarakat kita bersama dan jujur. 18:43 Selalu akan ada orang dan institusi 18:45 yang tujuan utamanya adalah untuk memperoleh. 18:47 Kewartawanan menawarkan sorotan atau pengawas, 18:51 pada para pelakon di institusi-institusi tersebut. 18:54 Oleh kerana itu, sangat penting. 18:58 Saya sangat berterima kasih kepada wartawan tersebut, 19:01 terutamanya sekarang, dalam sejarah, 19:04 di mana liputan fakta sangat mustahil 19:07 kerana menjaga keamanan masyarakat kita dan bersama, 19:10 dan jujur dan bekerja. 19:12 Saya hanya, saya bersyukur 19:13 untuk kewartawanan yang baik yang berlaku, 19:15 orang di luar sana bergegas. 19:16 Dan saya meratapi permusuhan 19:18 yang telah ditunjukkan kepada orang-orang itu 19:20 dan saya harap kita dapat terus maju dan kembali kepada fakta dan kebenaran. 19:25 Terima kasih kerana menonton. 19:26 Video ini ditaja oleh Squarespace 19:28 yang merupakan platform semua dalam satu 19:30 di mana anda boleh membuat apa-apa kehadiran dalam talian yang anda mahukan, 19:33 sama ada portfolio untuk video anda 19:35 atau untuk fotografi anda, 19:36 atau anda melancarkan perniagaan 19:38 dan anda ingin mempunyai kehadiran dalam talian 19:39 itu bukan hanya laman web, 19:40 tetapi juga tempat di mana anda boleh melakukan kempen e-mel 19:44 dan SEO supaya laman web anda muncul dalam carian, 19:47 atau integrasi dengan media sosial. 19:49 Apa pun, Squarespace adalah tempat
I have a passion for filmmaking and always wanted to make documentaries and films, but I never tried the broadcasting side and writing, I’m completing a multimedia degree in journalism and writing and it’s really opening my eyes to a wide range of media and ways to tell stories and connect with people, I still love cinematography and filmmaking but being able do this degree over a standard screen and media degree at film school, it also opens my career opportunities as I could work in radio broadcasting and news stations, and work in the video production sides
This is so valuable! When I started my travel blog, I treated it as travel journalism (of sorts). As I’ve gotten into video - and specifically watching your work for Vox and your personal brand - I’ve learnt more and more about journalism and I love it.
I appreciated the point about paying for your news. I wish that more people would realise that there are always hidden costs to obtaining your news for free. Removing the profit motive by paying for news usually ensures a high quality and informative media diet that can rarely (if ever) be achieved by 'free' sources
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT!!! Not only I agree with everything you said, but I have been fighting to make people understand this for years. I went to movie making school and the teacher was explaining how Antonioni was so good, because he broke the rules of cinematography. So I asked 'Can we try to break some rules and be just creative?' the answer was 'No, you are not Antonioni' which it makes no sense! How can I do something innovative if you 'punish me' for breaking the rules!? Anyway... THANK YOU JOHNNY. Your channel is getting better and better 🙂🙂
Such revolutionary move from controlled to subjective and free journalism is indeed commendable, more significantly that times have changed and the needs of information consumers are expanding more than ever. As a journalist myself, I have had a hard time staying on course of the traditional constructs of journalism as here in the Philippines "free and unreserved" journalism" is not condoned at any levels intensified by political interference. In our context, free journalism is explicitly condemned. Rappler, for example, is "red-tagged" and sued for disclosing commentaries for the government blunders. On the other hand, ABS-CBN was shut down with the mask-up reason of franchise renewal failure. I utterly appreciate this video, and I look forward to freely expressing my opinions towards the state reinforced with my claims and evidence, free from fear or trauma with the breaking-free-from-conventions you suggested. Thank you, Johnny Harris. This serves as a wake-up call for me.
The way he described journalism studies as only looking at theory, tradition, history and critique instead of current day practice is such a good roast for uni in general haha
As someone hoping to go into journalism but taking a slightly unconventional path to get to there I really love your videos! I started out studying Graphic design and as much as I enjoy it my goals are little different then my peers. Now I’m working on my school newspaper as the visual editor and I love it
But he did point out there is no true objectivity and everyone had bias to some degree. The “I”s work well for his version of journalism since he is pretty self aware about it and doesn’t stick to traditional ways of journalism.
Not necessarily. In scientific literature there used to be this same tradition, but newer generations have challenged it. If "I" designed an experiment and "I" carried it out, then it is an objective fact to state that "I found that... and I conclude that..." Same with journalism. If "I" witnessed something and "I" am reporting it as "I" saw it, that piece of objective information helps the audience decide whether to take my word as gospel, or interpret it as the point of view of one clearly identified individual who's presenting the story from their personal experience.
You said journalism/journalist exactly 60 times... And yes I watched it again just to count that 🙈. I'm all seriousness thank you Johnny for your amazing heart towards journalism. You have been a hero to RUclips , the internet and to me 💛💛💛
As an aspiring writer, your sixth point really spoke to me. I usually just watch your videos and thoroughly consume them and be edified but I also realise I do so because they are well written and as you mentioned, properly deliberated. I appreciate your good work. Thank you very much! 🙏❤️✨
What we would need is a Netflix of the press where you are charged a subscription in exchange for access to several news outlets. I simply don't have the money to pay for everything I wanna read
I don't know how it is in the US but where i live you can go to the library and read all the news paper and magazine you want for free. Some big city library also give you access to online news and magazine if you are a member.
That's a really good idea...If such a thing existed, they might end popping up around existing media conglomerates, but it would still be an interesting business model to try!
I absolutely love that you are kind enough to place your advertisement at the end of your video. Out of respect to you, I always watch the entire video, including the advertisement. Also, SquareSpace is an amazing service that I believe your entire viewer-base should check out!
This is very useful and practical for me, as a budding documentarian. I’ve especially felt tension from striving for (the myth of) objectivity, so I appreciate the objectivity-vs-fairness perspective
Any of your peers that claim your style isn't true journalism are delusional. You make the the best, most clear and concise videos on RUclips. The topics you cover are things I wouldn't normally think of, yet totally captivate me. I've always loved travelling, however your borders videos really made me fall in love with maps. It is your videos that make me want to actually learn when I travel somewhere new, not just take a picture and move on. It was your Escobar HIPPO video that put a bug in my brain and made it so I had to go and see these hippos living wild in Colombia. After spending over a month and a half here, yesterday it finally happened! I found a local with a boat who took me to the Río Magdalena and there it was, a Bull Hippo! I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I captured amazing photos that I can't wait to edit and cherish forever! It was all because of your amazing journalism that led me to see them. I will continue to follow your videos and hopefully travel to the same places to see this amazing world!
From a university student of journalism and communication, congratulation on the video! Point one is completely true and we actually study that in the degree Point 2 happens a lot because or we don’t have space or time to explain e everything about the topic or we just spend so much time studying the topic that we forget others might not have the same knowledge Point 3 sooooooooo True!!! But that is why we study so many types of journalism. In college we have classes about the traditional, super strict news production but we also learn to search for stories and connect with people! ✨ amazing video!
Your Vox documentaries were my favorite things to watch. I can't believe you were getting interrogated for that documentary style. Vox just isn't the same since you've left
This was an awesome video that I hope to share with my fellow student writers. I’m now the editor of my school paper, (no pressure)…And I’m looking for a way to encourage them to think of journalism as a worthwhile field no matter what major they are currently undertaking. I’m dealing with people who have never written professionally before, and have no idea how to break into the business. In addition, I myself I’ve spent the last three years working as a freelance writer with no editorial experience of my own. Yet the publisher of this publication Took one look at my résumé I thought that a was the perfect choice. I’m not saying this to gain any sympathy, but trust me when I say that this is new for all of us. Pray for me if you do, and thank you for posting this video.
12:56 You need way more details for your claim than simply Europe has private media, but better managed. Like for example, how is media structured in each place, and how do they differ from one another.
I love this video so much because it isn’t just for ‘journalists’, it’s great for story telling in general no matter what kind of story it is. Super inspiring
I'm an amateur historian and this spring I contacted a reporter about some research that I did. I also had documents proving that a local college broke NAGPRA laws. My story became a three day front page story. USA Today even considered running it but backed out last minute. Anyways the reporter I worked with, who is also the head of storytelling, he told me that he wants to sit down and discuss me becoming a reporter. So I'm researching what it takes to be a good journalist.
The fact that I'm listening to this while hand sewing and am totally engaged in what you're saying is a testament to the quality of your writing. I actually barely watched this (not 'cause it's boring, 'cause I'm hyper focusing on this sleeve cuff), but even listening was SO GOOD.
I’m a journalism student in America. I love what I do, I love writing, I love attending conferences, I love interacting with my peers and running around exchanging and collecting information. But I don’t want to be a traditional print or broadcast reporter. I was enticed by the idea of studying journalism when it was recommended to me that I should start reviewing music. I absolutely sucked at writing reviews at first, but as I kept doing it, I realized just how many rules have to be broken in order to write a good story; not just with a story as subjective as a review, but in interviews and human interest stories, you have to break rules. I feel like most media outlets follow so many rules (side note: AP style is dumb) and I’ve found so much beauty in other aspects of journalism that other journalism students judge me for, like RUclips and blogging. I specifically love the first points in this video - “generosity” over “objectivity”
As a communication student, these seven lessons are perfect. Since seven means perfection, these lessons are perfectly valuable because the present international realities and a paradigm shift in the media and communication may change the dynamics of journalism.
Dude, you're videos are great, you report and explain many different stories in simple terms with animations and cool editing that make them more interesting and entertaining. You are making people discover true and sometimes uncomfortable happenings from all around the world. Those "real" journalist that call themselves such are just afraid of your approach or they just have not understood the quality of your products yet. I speak for myself, video by video you're making me more cultured, and you do that entertaining me. Thank you very much, I love your work.
Point 1 is something all of us should know as news consumers. The best way is to acknowledge our biases...makes it easier for the storyteller as well as the reader/listener....point 5A is so true💯💯 And one more bit drone shots nd all just sort of bind the story together..you know like you can really connect with the people in the story and maybe understand where they are coming from....some shots might seem extra but they form a very important role in bringing the essence of a place/story.
I am here as a mother researching Journalism for my daughter as a possible career she's mentioned thinking about. I like what you said about studies. That is true for all academics and the education system all over the world follows this way. What's the point if we are going to teach history as a subject in schools in order to remember and learn from the past but we don't show our youths what the future could be. Like a Future studies class. All the possibilities and dreams we could pursue while evolving and breaking away from the old.
I feel like Hollywood is also responsible for the poor portraiting of journalists around the world. I mean, very often in Hollywood movies journalists are portrayed as headline addicts who would do anything to have good story to publish. It´s insane. Like, some examples: - Groundhog Day - Richard Thornburg in Die Hard (1) - J. Jonah Jameson in the Spider-Man trilogy
So true. I grew up thinking so poorly of journalists, only to realize in my early 20's that they are as essential to society as doctors and teachers. I'll be graduating with a bachelors in journalism soon. I'm in a good school but it's apparent that the jr department is not doing well as far as enrollment. Unfortunately that's symptomatic of what is happening in universities everywhere. We should be worried.
One thing that my high school English teacher said, “write as if you are trying to explain something to a 7 year old”. Practically anyone will understand your piece if you have that mindset.
I literally have a module called Journalism in Crisis, talking about the downfall of legacy news media. But why cling so hard on to the past when the world would always be heading towards the future?
Thanks for your thoughts. I do not agree with you when you say you are getting too deep inside your thoughts about journalism. Being such a great journalist, every little piece of thinking about these topics, are gold for many of us. Thank you Johnny.
The public sector in news media is a double edged sword. On one hand it can shield from corporate interest, on the other hand it opens the door to political one. I am Italian and under the previous government, a right leaning one, a new director for the state owned media was chosen. This guy is Marcello Foa, a hard right leaning journalist often accused to spread misinformation. You can see how in the past years the television programs in Italy changed.
Found this channel randomly by recommends of youtube. I don't watch videos about journalism or politics on english (I'm Russian) but it's very easy to understand what he says. I think it's a proof that point 2 is really works (sorry for maybe bad english). I think you've got my point.🤗🐈
Re: journalism school. Going to UGA’s J school seems to defy what you said based on my experience so far, in case anyone is looking for J schools! This video is amazing by the way.
To be perfectly honest, you’re entirely accurate, at least regarding myself. I stumbled on your channel by accident one day and was floored at how well you explained a complicated subject. I wanted to learn about what was going on in the world with some of these hyper complex topics, but it was a challenge. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your effort on the writing, it absolutely shows. You’re coverage of China is a work of art. You mentioned fairness in this video, and while watching your China episodes that was the first thing I noticed. I appreciated how you were reporting it fairly. You weren’t painting a picture of negativity at all, just the details. You report on China like you report on the USA and like Korea. I’d even say you are the most “fair” reporting I’ve ever seen. Thank you for your hard work and amazing skills at this, it’s highly valued!!! 🙏🙏
Edit: that's what I said the last part is why freedom of speech is so awesome; agreed that ads are controlling the knowledge & truth right now. Well I agree with every single point that you said, but unfortunately almost no one or a bare minimum of journalists in my country are doing good quality reporting making people have propaganda for food at prime time and silencing every single voice that tries to question 'em. Hopefully a revolution might be near in the field of mainstream media in India. Hopefully... & Thanks a lot for teaching me how to try to speak fluently.
I just wanted to tell you that I value what you are doing for young aspiring journalists like me. I used to love the things you did at Vox (in fact they have influenced me greatly in choosing my major in journalism). I completely agree that legacy media might be a bit disconnected and bland which is why I like your style a lot. Actually, I was wondering if I could work for you (internship or whatever else).... Is there anyway I could contact you?
MALAY SUBTITLES Part 1 of 6 00:00 - Hai semua. 00:00 Selamat Tahun Baru, selamat 2021. (muzik lembut) 00:02 Duduk di sini di Washington, DC, 00:04 tepat di luar kawasan yang semakin menjadi zon perang, 00:08 kerana minggu ini ada, semoga, 00:11 pemindahan kuasa secara aman dari seorang pemimpin ke pemimpin yang lain. 00:15 Bagaimanapun, mari kita bercakap mengenai kewartawanan. 00:16 Saya semacam tersandung dalam kewartawanan. 00:18 Pada mulanya saya mahu menjadi seperti sinematografer, pembuat filem. 00:21 Kemudian saya mahu menjadi diplomat dan saya mahu 00:24 sertai Perkhidmatan Luar Negeri untuk Amerika Syarikat. 00:26 Kemudian saya belajar bahawa saya tidak mahu melakukan perkara itu 00:28 dan bahawa saya benar-benar dapat menggabungkan bahan dari kedua-duanya 00:31 untuk melakukan perkara yang disebut kewartawanan, 00:33 menyampaikan jenis topik yang kompleks 00:36 hari ini kepada penonton. 00:39 Saya tidak pergi ke sekolah kewartawanan, 00:40 Saya tidak belajar secara formal ini, 00:42 tetapi saya akhirnya menjadi sebutan wartawan. 00:45 Selama bertahun-tahun saya belajar 00:47 beberapa perkara mengenai kewartawanan 00:49 yang saya ingin kongsi dengan anda. 00:51 - [Narator] Saya menetapkan wartawan untuk mendapatkannya 00:52 semua fakta penting dan untuk menulis cerita. 00:54 Saya juga menugaskan jurugambar berita untuk mengambil gambar. 00:56 Perakam dan jurugambar akan bekerjasama sebagai satu pasukan. 00:59 Kini wartawan mempunyai semua fakta. 01:00 Dia sudah bersedia untuk menulis kisahnya. 01:02 Dia meletakkan fakta yang paling penting dalam beberapa ayat pertama. 01:05 Kemudian dia menambah perincian menarik. 01:07 - Oleh itu mari kita buat senarai di sini. (muzik terang) 01:08 Nombor 1: "Objektiviti adalah mitos." 01:11 Tidak ada objektiviti. 01:14 Saya sering mendapati diri saya dalam perbualan ini 01:16 di mana orang seperti, 01:16 "Sekiranya ada berita objektif dan tidak objektif, 01:20 semua masalah kita di media akan hilang. " 01:22 Itu idea yang sangat menarik, tetapi semakin saya melakukan ini, 01:27 semakin saya sedar bahawa objektiviti bukanlah satu perkara, 01:31 itu teori. 01:31 Ini bukan perkara sebenar yang boleh anda capai. 01:34 Setiap artikel yang anda baca, setiap video yang anda tonton, 01:37 setiap gambar yang anda lihat dihasilkan oleh seorang manusia 01:41 yang keluar dan mengumpulkan maklumat itu 01:44 dan kemudian memutuskan apa fakta yang perlu dikemukakan di atas kertas. 01:47 Mereka memilih untuk membetulkan masalah ini dengan cara tertentu, 01:49 meninggalkan barang dan memasukkan barang lain. 01:52 Terdapat pilihan di sana. 01:53 Dan pilihan itu adalah produknya 01:55 manusia dan berat sebelah mereka. 01:57 Malah seorang wartawan gambar, 01:59 seseorang yang mengambil gambar untuk surat khabar, 02:01 mungkin jenis kewartawanan yang paling berat sebelah, 02:04 masih tertakluk kepada berat sebelah. 02:06 Cara foto dipotong dan dibingkai, 02:09 dan siapa mereka memutuskan untuk mengambil gambar, dan pukul berapa, 02:12 dan bagaimana mereka memutuskan untuk mendedahkan bingkai itu, 02:14 semua itu adalah pilihan. 02:16 Objektiviti adalah mitos. 02:17 Tetapi apa yang bukan mitos, dan apa yang nyata? 02:19 Dan saya rasa orang macam mana yang boleh dikunjungi 02:21 ketika mereka bercakap mengenai objektiviti, adalah adil. 02:23 Bersikap adil terhadap topik anda, atau subjek anda, 02:26 atau sisi hujah yang lain 02:27 yang anda buat dalam artikel anda. 02:28 Bos lama saya Ezra Klein (muzik lembut) 02:29 dulu membincangkan konsep ini sebagai kemurahan hati. 02:32 Kami, sebagai wartawan keluar dan berkumpul 02:33 banyak maklumat dan fakta mengenai sesuatu perkara, 02:36 dan kemudian kita semacam tanah di suatu tempat 02:38 mengenai apa yang kita fikirkan mengenai topik itu. 02:39 Dan kewartawanan kita, kisah kita, 02:41 akan menggambarkan keputusan itu. 02:43 Tetapi apa yang anda boleh lakukan sebagai wartawan yang adil 02:45 adakah anda boleh bermurah hati ke pihak lain. 02:48 Anda boleh membentangkan versi terbaik 02:50 hujah pihak lain. 02:52 Itu bagi saya adalah kewartawanan yang sihat, 02:54 adalah kemurahan hati ke sisi lain. 02:56 Tetapi objektiviti, ia tidak ada. 03:00 Saya mengalami ini pada musim pertama "Borders" 03:02 semasa saya di Jepun membuat cerita gelembung Korea Utara. 03:06 Saya jelas mempunyai kedudukan dalam cerita itu, 03:08 tetapi pada masa yang sama, saya ingin memberikan versi terbaik, 03:12 versi paling murah hati, dari sudut pandang Korea Utara. 03:16 Dan saya cuba membahagikan keseimbangan itu 03:18 sementara juga jelas dan tegas mengenai fakta. 03:21 Itu adalah keseimbangan yang sukar, tetapi apabila ia dilakukan dengan betul, 03:23 ia menjadikan kewartawanan yang lebih baik. 03:25 Nombor 2: "Banyak wartawan 03:27 menulis untuk rakan sebaya mereka dan bukan untuk khalayak mereka. " 03:30 Ini benar-benar lain (muzik lembut) 03:31 perkara berguna yang saya pelajari dari Ezra Bekerja di "Vox." 03:34 Banyak kewartawanan sukar difahami, 03:36 itu hanya fakta. 03:37 Seperti sekarang saya membaca "Wall Street Journal" 03:39 atau "Washington Post" atau "New York Times," 03:41 Saya sukar mendapatkan sebilangan bahasa 03:43 dan beberapa perkara yang berlaku, 03:45 terutamanya untuk topik yang saya agak baru. 03:48 Saya selalu merasakan ini. 03:49 Dan selalu mengecewakan, kerana saya suka, 03:51 "Bukankah kalian menulis sehingga saya mengerti? 03:53 Seperti, saya pengguna berita yang berpendidikan ini
As a Journalism student, you have no idea how helpful your thoughts are. It made me realize a lot of stuff in my future field, I'm grateful for this video, thank you so much!
Same here! Puts US Journalism into perspective for an Irish Journalism student.
Hi students! Former aspiring journalist here. Are y'all studying the far right and normal right hack the media to spread their viewpoints?
Literally as real as it gets. Loving these videos too!
Any book recommendations for someone who wants to learn journalism on his own?
@@vokoaxecer elements of journalism is a good one. (Bill Kovach & Tom Rosensteil). Louis Theroux’s autobiography gives you a good insight into interviewing people
Your style of journalism, filmmaking, storytelling - whatever you want to call it - is definitely one of my favourites that I've come across. You can tell that you put a lot of thought and effort into all your videos and it definitely makes your channel stand out from the crowd. Looking forward to those zesty videos coming out in the near future!
Thank you so much for this comment so the people can understand
We don't need the speed increase on archival footage but so far ok video. Weird shirt too but that's being petty. Facts seem good. Information seems solid
I've studied journalism for 7 years, in 3 different schools and you've summed that up brillantly in 20 minutes. Love it
Damn, your student loans must be through the roof
From where you did your journalism?
Your Borders episode on the Morocco-EU border inspired my Master's dissertation last year and this year, I graduated at the top of my class, with the dissertation being an important part of that. So thank you, Johnny, for doing what you do. Whether or not you call it journalism, it's definitely inspiring and elevating.
:) I am ammused
Beautiful ! Congratulations 🎉
Congratulations!
In case you're wondering, you said "journalism" 70 times.
lmaooo i counted too
And that's excluding all the outtakes!
What was the video about, though?
@@SeanGHOB im guessing, journalism?
@the capacitor
So?
I am just a dude from Sweden, but i have to say that you are my favorite private journalist.
People like you are needed in this day of age, when polarization is a daily word.
It is scary to see what is happening with journalists around the globe, getting threatened and sometimes even murdered. I respect you for what you are doing, and thankful for what you are teaching me.
Be careful, it is hard to tell the truth.
Johnny's hair is a full journalistic documentary on its own ❤️
it's perfectly undone done.
i tried to ignore it but its there i mean u cant just focus on whats he saying..
Lol yeah@@maruwan-dono
His hair looks more like bed hair than actual bed hair.

My favourite journalism to read or watch is journalism that reads like a story, often taking its time to describe the situation in a way that helps me empathise with the people it is about.
These are the stories that I remember and the ones that affect me the most, and the ones that encourage me to think about the issue and research it further.
As a journalist, I agree with all of these. I think that number 2 is a good reminder, especially when you’re constantly surrounded by your peers. It’s easy to forget most people don’t spend most hours of the day consuming media.
I think that most people do spend most hours of the day consuming media, especially right now. The problem is the kind of media that is being consumed by the masses. Most media is either dumbed down and created to divide people to one extreme or another, or created to entertain people for extended periods of time. If the media wasn't so focused on turning heads/ getting the most views I think we all would be much better off.
@@sunnyday8989 not only that, we love to generalize media as strictly print. We consume various forms of media: this video we watched, shows on TV, the music you listen to, podcasts, books, etc. “The media” is consistently mislabeled and only depicted as journalistic writing - it’s not. And I think that’s a very interesting thing to consider.
what did you major in to become a journalist?
Maybe it’s because I’m gen Z and in college, but literally everyone I know DOES spend hours every day consuming media…
As someone "stuck" in journalism school, I really appreciate this and your videos. Sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy in here but then I get to read and write stuff that I really believe in and I feel a whole lot better.
As a journalism student in the UK there's a lot I agree with here. I think the most important part of this video was its commentary on how news media owners monetize journalism. I get most of my general news from the Guardian and the BBC because I know that advertising incentives won't be a factor and you can see how that becomes an issue when you read papers like the Sun or watch any American broadcast news - they're so concerned with profit that everything becomes sensationalised, leading to tropes such as "never let the facts get in the way of a good story". If you want quality news, you're not going to get it for free.
Guardian does not run ads but it’s far from being a good faith news reporting organization. There was a time when it was a great newspaper but I think they have simply chosen to play the game of mindlessly taking sides like almost every other newspaper.
@@nandakumar8936 Look at most British reporting scandals where newspapers have come under fire or been found guilty of wrongdoing and/or immoral practices.The Guardian's pretty much the only one major newspaper that's never usually in the stink on that, yet they still break brilliant and important stories
@@adamdickinson2894 agreed but there’s more to what makes a newspaper good or bad these days. For one good piece of work, there’s 10 opinion pieces that are hideous. The flip they did on rallying behind Biden before the election was pretty ugly. There is nothing such a newspaper stands to gain from who wins an election since there’s no big donors. A truly good newspaper should remain ideologically consistent unless there is a strong reason for changing and stop blatantly supporting individual candidates.
@@nandakumar8936 Guardian stitched up Assange like a kipper, hows that for screwing the truth and as for the BBC - why not google Panorama - that's all you'll need to know.
Every time I want an update on international news (I live in Chile, South America) I go to BBC because of this very same reason.
The man who got every bit of skill to grab audience and keep them sticking, with pure content. I mean, observe the pan in- pan out during frames with such precision. Got a lot to learn from him . Wish you great days ahead 🇮🇳
The side graphic of someone squeezing a lime when he said "zesty" was so unnecessary and unexpected yet so whimsical and appreciated.
20:37 in case you are wondering

Playful and creative …. Listen to all that fun background music…. Not distracting
As a journalism student who's becoming super disenchanted with the monument of journalism, I really appreciate your sentiment in this video. It's really encouraging to see journalists in the field seeing the same thing I'm seeing as I come up.
I know I’m late but some of the major reasons why I love Vox and Johnny are their use of interesting infographics, maps, charts, b roll shots, etc. It helps us visualize and contextualize what we are learning rather than having to absorb the sometimes dense material without visual aids.
Agreed
I am applying for an internship with the Economist. I am so heckin nervous because it is my absolute dream to work for them. I had a feeling you were going to say the Economist is your go-to. I really appreciate the fluidity of your career path, and thank you for sharing so much about how you got to where you are today. It is inspiring for me because it shows what is possible. I used to fear that journalism was dead, but then I realized journalism is not dead; instead, it is evolving. So I am hoping to make a break into the field of storytelling. Thanks for all your content!
Jargon does sometimes allow you to communicate more efficiently. It's a difficult balance to strike. I certainly think that the use of accurate and technical language shouldn't always be considered a negative. For one thing people only learn new words if they hear them being used. It's about finding a middle ground and writing appropriately for the intended audience.
Indeed, I agree with you and your claim of being "cautious" in terms of jargon. However, I do prefer simplifying the language for the great mass to fully comprehend any article. Utilitarianism in the angle of journalism should also be considered.
You lost me with all that jargon.
@@yosoycasta how is that so?
I will also add something else real quick while diving in it with him. Journalism most of the time do wright for their audience, however, if you are not their target audience then a lot of the words will seem like jargon. The New York Times, for instance, it is almost common knowledge among those who read continuously and journalist that their audience is between New Yorkers and Highly College Educated. However, The New York times has also become a very very well know news publication, so many people think they should "dumb" down their writing. The New York Times, being like a "New Yorker", is saying screw you to adjusting their vocabulary to fit a fickle growing audience. It hasn't complete hurt them. When you tell people you are advent reader of the New York Times, for some reason many eyes glow up and look at you with intelligence. When in reality you might hold an average college vocabulary that should be 40,000 words, which is 20,000 words above the laymen. Then you have to realize that 2/3 of America doesn't have a college education, so it sounds impressive. It is not.
As a second-year journalism student I find struggle with the traditional teachings and new journalism. I used to get so frustrated when I would keep doing fundamental and writing what’s most newsworthy instead of what excites me. All my professor took the excitement of storytelling away from me and I was considering changing my major or setting up a plan to teach myself the ethics and laws of journalism so I could do my own thing. However, this video has given me hope. I now see not my professors vision of journalism or others notions of journalism but mine: storytelling that is clear, important, and that makes me passionate. Thank you!!
As a journalism student this makes so much sense. Loved it, i appreciate this brutal honesty about academia and the media business.
it’s human nature: the want to understand. i was one of those kids who wanted to understand abt the world, and now i’m on my way to become a journalist/communicator. thankyou for being an inspiration:)
As a sociology student going into journalism this video has literally articulated everything I've been thinking about journalism the last 3 years you are a damn wizard sir
I'm an old faculty guy (stats and research methods), and I can say that this was a great video and you provided an important perspective. Great job!!! Cheers.
The entire realm of journalism/media needs to diversify, starting from the top. Facts can also be obscured, depending upon a journalist integrity. Often times-loyalties determine actions, facts or not.
I am turned off journalism for this reason. Way to many bias pieces. Yet to see a written piece discussing both sides of an argument and what/why the writer disagrees and/or agrees with. Turns me off of this career completely.
Absolutely loved this video omg. Student journalist in college here and have recently been feeling so bogged down by the tradition and customs of journalism. I feel like I’ve been facing a reckoning with what type of journalism I wanna pursue. Thanks for putting some of my thoughts into a video!
Journalism/Political Science major here, thank you for this video man! Really helped me prepare for the field I’m getting into. Your form of journalism is the kind I want to get into. It’s the best.
Totally understand what you are saying when talking about Journalism School not giving enough practical experience, but I have to say that when I was at university (less than 6 years ago) I felt that we absolutely had a dual emphasis, firstly on understanding conventions, ethics, and guidelines, and secondly on going out and writing stories, creating videos, recording audio for radio or podcasts, and generally doing the work. We certainly had it hammered into us that, if we wanted to do anything in the field after graduation, we needed a portfolio of work already completed, and that it would be the main thing that was looked at when we would be hired. And I think that learning the rules before deciding to break them is a very important step, which is something I think you (and Vox) do quite well.
I'm a student journalist and your videos are really interesting. Your exploration about objectivity is particularly interesting too. In J school we're being taught that we as journalists have a "obligation to the truth", yet fulfilling that obligation won't always mean that a reader will get both sides of a story. You obviously are aware of the Journalistic Truth and Awareness Instinct, so I'm not gonna delve in too deep yet but from my studies and readings, i've learnt that "Fairness and Balance" isn't a suitable replacement for the Journalistic Truth. I believe if more emphasis is put on the journalist truth theory within media corps. we'll have an objective media. Journalism, in the States particularly, is subject to Open Bias and has tapped into the "Bloggosphere/Twittersphere" mentality. To add, "journalists writing for peers" puts that into perspective, as that is on of David Randall's limitations of journalism that further disassociates journalism with the journalistic truth. I've taken a lot for the first 10 mins of this video. just thought i'd add something from a current journalism student.
That's really interesting to know because the objectivity question was actually one of the first things that I was thought in my journalism degree and they basically told us that it's a lie and we should aim to achieve it while being aware that we'll never reach it because it's impossible to know all the sides and to never have some sort of input there. Crazy to think how even in a formal aspect it varies a lot from place to place
No you're not

I switched my major in University from Journalism to Film after successfully studying it for 2 years. I found myself alienated with the lack of experimentation and the rigidness of faculty and their lack of knowledge with modern industry tools. The primary thing I did takeaway is how to write in CP style. I agree with many points of your critique and found myself conflicted asking similar questions. Eventually, I came to the realization that I don't need to study journalism to eventually become a video-journalists. Many of the skills I learned have a lot of value and I find them helping me in my day to day work and even across industries.
My passion going into university was to be a documentary filmmaker and it remains so. I never aspired to be a full-time working journalist because I do enjoy the taking the time to research and delve into stories that offer the opportunity to go deep.
Data Visualization is definitely an essential part of journalism now and moving forward.
I just want to say thank you Johnny for showing that journalism can be done differently!
It’s so good to see how humble and honest you are Johnny. Great insights shared, really informative!!
I currently do sports photos for my local newspaper and am hopefully gonna start writing stories for them too! I 100% agree with the photojournalist bias. My paper will only run photos with our home team as the main focus. Their favorites of mine are always the ones that make our players look heroic almost. There’s ones of football I’ve done where I’m behind our player with the ball and he’s looking forward past the opposing defenders. I can crop it a certain way to focus on our guy while making the opposing team visible but definitely not where your eye goes first. Its important to look at possible bias in photos as well as in the text!
Is it just me, or is this man a genius man with a common sense gut
I can't tell. I keep getting distracted by that piece of art hair.
I would not call him a genius.
It is just you.
Just you buddy
He's good at edit videos and pick interesting topics, but his constant spewing bias and skipping facts/details gets a bit jarring at times.
I have been watching your Vox vids for a long time now and I just wanted to say that I got so interested in your work since the way you portray journalism was hell of a lot more approachable. I have always felt a gap with many global issues around the world since the way it often reaches to me is through the specialized terminologies that is published through journalism. With the content that you create, I am given a sense that what I’m watching and/or reading has the goal of making me understand what is going on, and making me part of the conversation. What you and the people in vox create are a version of journalism that I know is going to be huge. More power to you!
This was deep. (Not the hand thing, now that was hilarious) You dug deep, and struck gold. This is your story.
As a journalism student, I found this video very helpful and already very true from what I have seen/experienced. Talking to seasoned, new-aged journalists, many of them have talked about how all of the things we are taught are old and companies not only have changed, but so have readers. I definitely recommend reaching out and talking to current, young journalists. I've learned a lot about the business from them (including just watching this video from Johnny), than my professors (who have taught me basic editing and story structure).
The fact that I was interested in your Red winter Jacket is a testimony to how good of a storyteller you are. 👍❤️
"Photojournalism--presumably the least biased journalism there is."
Really? I've always thought the photograph is inherently much more powerful, easier to manipulate, and harder to contextualize without words accompanying it.
Right? photo journalism today is antiquated as compare to video journalism.
@@inigojuancarlos seriously. I saw a post online that showed two pictures one that looked like the a building in the US capital was on fire. The second one showed a picture of several photographers leaning down taking a picture of a broken trash can on fire. So they were lining up the fire to make it look like the capital was on fire.
I agree. I'm a photographer... because it's a much more limited medium than text it's so easy to manipulate it into telling the story you want it to tell. And humans are visual creatures, people can have immediate and visceral reactions to pictures, and that makes photography really powerful in creating a narrative.
Agreed. Not professional but loved photography. Spent countless times finding the right angle to tell a specific story that I am more inclined to tell or can make my subject more attractive. It's honestly subjective.
Thats kind of the point he made wheen he brought it up.
This is the least fluffy Johnny Harris vid but I was focused for 21mins- way to show good writing. So meta! Tnx Johnny, always inspiring!
Thanks for this Johnny! Please never ever change the way you summarize things! There is know one like you!
Finally a journalist that gets it and has the guts to tell it like it is. Thank you for taking journalism seriously and for passing on these key observations to us viewers, current and future journalists. I quit journalism a few years ago because of the issues you mentionned, but your work is so inspiring I'm thinking I should get back in the game! Thanks for your hard work, passion and service, cheers from Vietnam!

16:54
Saya menghabiskan banyak masa untuk memilih kata-kata saya
16:56
supaya setiap kisah yang saya ceritakan (muzik terang)
16:58
tenggelam di sisi lain semasa anda mendengar
17:01
dan itu kerana kewartawanan yang baik
17:03
adalah penulisan yang baik pada penghujung hari.
17:05
Dan ia sangat penting.
17:07
Sekiranya anda ingin menjadi lebih baik dalam menulis, saya ada buku untuk anda.
17:09
Saya akan meletakkan pautan dalam keterangan.
17:11
Sekiranya saya terlupa, hubungi saya di komen
17:13
kerana saya tidak mahu lupa
17:14
kerana saya ingin memberitahu anda mengenai buku ini.
17:15
Maksud saya, saya boleh mengatakannya sekarang
17:17
dan kemudian anda boleh mencarinya.
17:18
Tetapi oh, tetapi jika saya memasukkannya ke dalam pautan ini dalam keterangan
17:21
Saya boleh menjadikannya pautan afiliasi,
17:22
dan kemudian saya dapat wang setiap kali anda mengkliknya.
17:25
Man, insentif ekonomi abad ke-21
17:28
hanya bermain di fikiran saya sekarang.
17:30
Oh tidak.
17:31
Baik. Pelajaran terakhir di sini, "Kewartawanan yang baik adalah penting."
17:35
Sekarang dengar saya mengenai perkara ini. (muzik elektronik yang terang)
17:36
Ini mungkin terdengar sopan, tetapi,
17:37
Selama bertahun-tahun saya belajar bahawa kewartawanan sukar.
17:40
Untuk keluar dan mengumpulkan maklumat
17:43
itu tidak wujud di dunia
17:44
dan untuk menyampaikannya ke seluruh dunia adalah sukar.
17:48
Negara kita, beberapa bulan kebelakangan ini,
17:50
telah menunjukkan betapa pentingnya saya
17:52
dan betapa baiknya kewartawanan yang baik.
17:55
Fakta tidak penting bagi banyak orang hari ini.
17:59
Dan sebelum anda mengetahuinya,
18:00
anda boleh mempunyai seseorang yang berkuasa
18:02
mencipta cerita palsu mengenai pilihan raya,
18:05
dan anda boleh mempunyai saluran berita
18:07
yang mengaku melakukan kewartawanan,
18:09
terjun dengan naratif itu
18:10
dan buat fakta untuk menyokongnya.
18:13
Itu menakutkan!
18:14
Kewartawanan yang baik, perkara di mana orang keluar
18:17
dan sebenarnya meneliti bukti
18:19
dan menyampaikan hujah yang kuat kepada khalayak
18:23
yang teliti kembali ke arah mereka,
18:25
dan ada perbincangan, wacana,
18:27
itu jarang dan istimewa.
18:29
Di sini, di Amerika Syarikat kita menyebutnya sebagai "Fourth Estate",
18:32
institusi akhbar bebas ini
18:34
yang menjadikan pemimpin kita jujur,
18:36
menjaga syarikat kami jujur,
18:39
menjaga masyarakat kita bersama dan jujur.
18:43
Selalu akan ada orang dan institusi
18:45
yang tujuan utamanya adalah untuk memperoleh.
18:47
Kewartawanan menawarkan sorotan atau pengawas,
18:51
pada para pelakon di institusi-institusi tersebut.
18:54
Oleh kerana itu, sangat penting.
18:58
Saya sangat berterima kasih kepada wartawan tersebut,
19:01
terutamanya sekarang, dalam sejarah,
19:04
di mana liputan fakta sangat mustahil
19:07
kerana menjaga keamanan masyarakat kita dan bersama,
19:10
dan jujur dan bekerja.
19:12
Saya hanya, saya bersyukur
19:13
untuk kewartawanan yang baik yang berlaku,
19:15
orang di luar sana bergegas.
19:16
Dan saya meratapi permusuhan
19:18
yang telah ditunjukkan kepada orang-orang itu
19:20
dan saya harap kita dapat terus maju dan kembali kepada fakta dan kebenaran.
19:25
Terima kasih kerana menonton.

As soneome who's thinking about attending journalism school this video was incredibly helpful. Thanks a lot.
I have a passion for filmmaking and always wanted to make documentaries and films, but I never tried the broadcasting side and writing, I’m completing a multimedia degree in journalism and writing and it’s really opening my eyes to a wide range of media and ways to tell stories and connect with people, I still love cinematography and filmmaking but being able do this degree over a standard screen and media degree at film school, it also opens my career opportunities as I could work in radio broadcasting and news stations, and work in the video production sides
"When the public pays public is served
And when the advertiser pays advertiser is served ". Newslaundry india
I was thinking about Newslaundry while he was talking about money and news.
hum bhi aa gaye iss comment ko support karne
Yeah....
I was thinking about newslaundry while watching that part
Meko smj ni aya koi explain krega😐
This is so valuable! When I started my travel blog, I treated it as travel journalism (of sorts). As I’ve gotten into video - and specifically watching your work for Vox and your personal brand - I’ve learnt more and more about journalism and I love it.
I appreciated the point about paying for your news. I wish that more people would realise that there are always hidden costs to obtaining your news for free. Removing the profit motive by paying for news usually ensures a high quality and informative media diet that can rarely (if ever) be achieved by 'free' sources
Thats why in Germany u have to pay for news
journalism is not a real thing, Is a group of activist saying that they have the truth, even with the evidence in their faces.
FINALLY SOMEONE SAID IT!!! Not only I agree with everything you said, but I have been fighting to make people understand this for years. I went to movie making school and the teacher was explaining how Antonioni was so good, because he broke the rules of cinematography. So I asked 'Can we try to break some rules and be just creative?' the answer was 'No, you are not Antonioni' which it makes no sense! How can I do something innovative if you 'punish me' for breaking the rules!? Anyway...
THANK YOU JOHNNY. Your channel is getting better and better 🙂🙂
You're back! Yeah! Happy New Year.
Such revolutionary move from controlled to subjective and free journalism is indeed commendable, more significantly that times have changed and the needs of information consumers are expanding more than ever. As a journalist myself, I have had a hard time staying on course of the traditional constructs of journalism as here in the Philippines "free and unreserved" journalism" is not condoned at any levels intensified by political interference. In our context, free journalism is explicitly condemned. Rappler, for example, is "red-tagged" and sued for disclosing commentaries for the government blunders. On the other hand, ABS-CBN was shut down with the mask-up reason of franchise renewal failure. I utterly appreciate this video, and I look forward to freely expressing my opinions towards the state reinforced with my claims and evidence, free from fear or trauma with the breaking-free-from-conventions you suggested. Thank you, Johnny Harris. This serves as a wake-up call for me.
The way he described journalism studies as only looking at theory, tradition, history and critique instead of current day practice is such a good roast for uni in general haha
As someone hoping to go into journalism but taking a slightly unconventional path to get to there I really love your videos! I started out studying Graphic design and as much as I enjoy it my goals are little different then my peers. Now I’m working on my school newspaper as the visual editor and I love it
Maybe someone already said it, but the "I" contradicts the maxime of "objectivity". Great work, like always!
But he did point out there is no true objectivity and everyone had bias to some degree. The “I”s work well for his version of journalism since he is pretty self aware about it and doesn’t stick to traditional ways of journalism.
Not necessarily. In scientific literature there used to be this same tradition, but newer generations have challenged it. If "I" designed an experiment and "I" carried it out, then it is an objective fact to state that "I found that... and I conclude that..." Same with journalism. If "I" witnessed something and "I" am reporting it as "I" saw it, that piece of objective information helps the audience decide whether to take my word as gospel, or interpret it as the point of view of one clearly identified individual who's presenting the story from their personal experience.
@@silversunset I know and I agree.
@@eomguel9017 it wasn't meant as criticism of Johnny's statement, it was more an addendum, so to speak, or I just thought aloud.
I was literally wondering for days about your new video. Thanks for teaching us so many things, which are very helpful.
Have just started my journey with journalism. Self taught and I already find my articles and writing more exciting than anything I read in newspapers.
So grateful, Sir, for sharing your thoughts on journalism. I'm really moved, inspired and have a clear sense of direction.
You said journalism/journalist exactly 60 times... And yes I watched it again just to count that 🙈.
I'm all seriousness thank you Johnny for your amazing heart towards journalism. You have been a hero to RUclips , the internet and to me 💛💛💛
As an aspiring writer, your sixth point really spoke to me. I usually just watch your videos and thoroughly consume them and be edified but I also realise I do so because they are well written and as you mentioned, properly deliberated. I appreciate your good work. Thank you very much! 🙏❤️✨
What we would need is a Netflix of the press where you are charged a subscription in exchange for access to several news outlets. I simply don't have the money to pay for everything I wanna read
Make it! I would subscribe!
I don't know how it is in the US but where i live you can go to the library and read all the news paper and magazine you want for free. Some big city library also give you access to online news and magazine if you are a member.
That's a really good idea...If such a thing existed, they might end popping up around existing media conglomerates, but it would still be an interesting business model to try!
I absolutely love that you are kind enough to place your advertisement at the end of your video.
Out of respect to you, I always watch the entire video, including the advertisement.
Also, SquareSpace is an amazing service that I believe your entire viewer-base should check out!
This is very useful and practical for me, as a budding documentarian. I’ve especially felt tension from striving for (the myth of) objectivity, so I appreciate the objectivity-vs-fairness perspective
Any of your peers that claim your style isn't true journalism are delusional. You make the the best, most clear and concise videos on RUclips. The topics you cover are things I wouldn't normally think of, yet totally captivate me. I've always loved travelling, however your borders videos really made me fall in love with maps. It is your videos that make me want to actually learn when I travel somewhere new, not just take a picture and move on.
It was your Escobar HIPPO video that put a bug in my brain and made it so I had to go and see these hippos living wild in Colombia. After spending over a month and a half here, yesterday it finally happened! I found a local with a boat who took me to the Río Magdalena and there it was, a Bull Hippo! I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I captured amazing photos that I can't wait to edit and cherish forever! It was all because of your amazing journalism that led me to see them. I will continue to follow your videos and hopefully travel to the same places to see this amazing world!
I love your attitude to journalism. It resembles one that Tiziano Terzani had. Keep it up!
From a university student of journalism and communication, congratulation on the video!
Point one is completely true and we actually study that in the degree
Point 2 happens a lot because or we don’t have space or time to explain e everything about the topic or we just spend so much time studying the topic that we forget others might not have the same knowledge
Point 3 sooooooooo True!!! But that is why we study so many types of journalism. In college we have classes about the traditional, super strict news production but we also learn to search for stories and connect with people!
✨ amazing video!
I love how he said, ‘Just watched “Little Women,” the new one with Hermione.’ (11:20)
DEAD! Haha
I am a journalist from Hong Kong, your video has inspired me a lot and cleared my mind. Thank you!
Your Vox documentaries were my favorite things to watch. I can't believe you were getting interrogated for that documentary style. Vox just isn't the same since you've left
This was an awesome video that I hope to share with my fellow student writers. I’m now the editor of my school paper, (no pressure)…And I’m looking for a way to encourage them to think of journalism as a worthwhile field no matter what major they are currently undertaking. I’m dealing with people who have never written professionally before, and have no idea how to break into the business. In addition, I myself I’ve spent the last three years working as a freelance writer with no editorial experience of my own. Yet the publisher of this publication Took one look at my résumé I thought that a was the perfect choice. I’m not saying this to gain any sympathy, but trust me when I say that this is new for all of us. Pray for me if you do, and thank you for posting this video.

Can we appreciate this video does not have any ads ♥️

You need way more details for your claim than simply Europe has private media, but better managed. Like for example, how is media structured in each place, and how do they differ from one another.
I love this video so much because it isn’t just for ‘journalists’, it’s great for story telling in general no matter what kind of story it is. Super inspiring
I'm an amateur historian and this spring I contacted a reporter about some research that I did. I also had documents proving that a local college broke NAGPRA laws. My story became a three day front page story. USA Today even considered running it but backed out last minute. Anyways the reporter I worked with, who is also the head of storytelling, he told me that he wants to sit down and discuss me becoming a reporter. So I'm researching what it takes to be a good journalist.
The fact that I'm listening to this while hand sewing and am totally engaged in what you're saying is a testament to the quality of your writing. I actually barely watched this (not 'cause it's boring, 'cause I'm hyper focusing on this sleeve cuff), but even listening was SO GOOD.
This fun idea take a shot every time John said "Journalism or Journalist"
Nobody reporting back everybody died :-(
Dude, the paramedics are busy enough as it is.
I’m a journalism student in America. I love what I do, I love writing, I love attending conferences, I love interacting with my peers and running around exchanging and collecting information. But I don’t want to be a traditional print or broadcast reporter.
I was enticed by the idea of studying journalism when it was recommended to me that I should start reviewing music. I absolutely sucked at writing reviews at first, but as I kept doing it, I realized just how many rules have to be broken in order to write a good story; not just with a story as subjective as a review, but in interviews and human interest stories, you have to break rules. I feel like most media outlets follow so many rules (side note: AP style is dumb) and I’ve found so much beauty in other aspects of journalism that other journalism students judge me for, like RUclips and blogging.
I specifically love the first points in this video - “generosity” over “objectivity”
About #2 I once read “You need to write sentences that a 13-year-old can follow.” I think is the best writing tip that you can get.
As a communication student, these seven lessons are perfect. Since seven means perfection, these lessons are perfectly valuable because the present international realities and a paradigm shift in the media and communication may change the dynamics of journalism.
Johnny should review some of Arnab's debates (or shouting matches) and economics of Indian Godi Journalism.
Ravish Kumar is fake news.
Yeah Goswami makes me go insane. Also AYYYY INDIAN FAM
Dude, you're videos are great, you report and explain many different stories in simple terms with animations and cool editing that make them more interesting and entertaining. You are making people discover true and sometimes uncomfortable happenings from all around the world. Those "real" journalist that call themselves such are just afraid of your approach or they just have not understood the quality of your products yet. I speak for myself, video by video you're making me more cultured, and you do that entertaining me. Thank you very much, I love your work.
I took a shot everytime Johnny said "Journalism". I'm smashed now...
Point 1 is something all of us should know as news consumers. The best way is to acknowledge our biases...makes it easier for the storyteller as well as the reader/listener....point 5A is so true💯💯
And one more bit drone shots nd all just sort of bind the story together..you know like you can really connect with the people in the story and maybe understand where they are coming from....some shots might seem extra but they form a very important role in bringing the essence of a place/story.
Book: The Sense of Style: The Thinking Person's Guide to Writing in the 21st Century
I am here as a mother researching Journalism for my daughter as a possible career she's mentioned thinking about.
I like what you said about studies. That is true for all academics and the education system all over the world follows this way. What's the point if we are going to teach history as a subject in schools in order to remember and learn from the past but we don't show our youths what the future could be. Like a Future studies class. All the possibilities and dreams we could pursue while evolving and breaking away from the old.
I feel like Hollywood is also responsible for the poor portraiting of journalists around the world. I mean, very often in Hollywood movies journalists are portrayed as headline addicts who would do anything to have good story to publish. It´s insane.
Like, some examples:
- Groundhog Day
- Richard Thornburg in Die Hard (1)
- J. Jonah Jameson in the Spider-Man trilogy
So true. I grew up thinking so poorly of journalists, only to realize in my early 20's that they are as essential to society as doctors and teachers. I'll be graduating with a bachelors in journalism soon. I'm in a good school but it's apparent that the jr department is not doing well as far as enrollment. Unfortunately that's symptomatic of what is happening in universities everywhere. We should be worried.

As a journalist, this is one of the most amazing videos i've seen. Thank you so much desde Venezuela. SO MUCH TRUTH.
One thing that my high school English teacher said, “write as if you are trying to explain something to a 7 year old”. Practically anyone will understand your piece if you have that mindset.
I'm currently studying journalism, I'm so thankful of knowing you, greetings from Perú
I literally have a module called Journalism in Crisis, talking about the downfall of legacy news media. But why cling so hard on to the past when the world would always be heading towards the future?
Thanks for your thoughts. I do not agree with you when you say you are getting too deep inside your thoughts about journalism. Being such a great journalist, every little piece of thinking about these topics, are gold for many of us. Thank you Johnny.
when he said he didn't go to journalism school, I got exited as he inspired me to maybe become an explainer journalist one day
I'm really glad I'm watching this video. There's lot of old things in Acting, and filmmaking industry that people are stuck to and going nowhere.
The public sector in news media is a double edged sword. On one hand it can shield from corporate interest, on the other hand it opens the door to political one. I am Italian and under the previous government, a right leaning one, a new director for the state owned media was chosen. This guy is Marcello Foa, a hard right leaning journalist often accused to spread misinformation. You can see how in the past years the television programs in Italy changed.
Found this channel randomly by recommends of youtube. I don't watch videos about journalism or politics on english (I'm Russian) but it's very easy to understand what he says. I think it's a proof that point 2 is really works (sorry for maybe bad english). I think you've got my point.🤗🐈
Re: journalism school. Going to UGA’s J school seems to defy what you said based on my experience so far, in case anyone is looking for J schools! This video is amazing by the way.
To be perfectly honest, you’re entirely accurate, at least regarding myself. I stumbled on your channel by accident one day and was floored at how well you explained a complicated subject. I wanted to learn about what was going on in the world with some of these hyper complex topics, but it was a challenge. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your effort on the writing, it absolutely shows. You’re coverage of China is a work of art. You mentioned fairness in this video, and while watching your China episodes that was the first thing I noticed. I appreciated how you were reporting it fairly. You weren’t painting a picture of negativity at all, just the details. You report on China like you report on the USA and like Korea. I’d even say you are the most “fair” reporting I’ve ever seen. Thank you for your hard work and amazing skills at this, it’s highly valued!!! 🙏🙏
You're a very good journalist
I think we all agree on that
Absolutely love his commentary on affiliate links 😂😂😂 ugh, a delight to listen to. Thanks for an informative but friendly discussion 🌻☕️
Edit: that's what I said the last part is why freedom of speech is so awesome; agreed that ads are controlling
the knowledge & truth right now.
Well I agree with every single point that you said, but unfortunately almost no one or a bare minimum of journalists in my country are doing good quality reporting making people have propaganda for food at prime time and silencing every single voice that tries to question 'em. Hopefully a revolution might be near in the field of mainstream media in India. Hopefully... &
Thanks a lot for teaching me how to try to speak fluently.
Arbab,Zee news,godi media all are sucking the life out of India😔
I only trust News laundry nowadays
Thanks for taking the time and energy to uphold the hope of the integrity of the world of news and information.
I just wanted to tell you that I value what you are doing for young aspiring journalists like me. I used to love the things you did at Vox (in fact they have influenced me greatly in choosing my major in journalism). I completely agree that legacy media might be a bit disconnected and bland which is why I like your style a lot. Actually, I was wondering if I could work for you (internship or whatever else).... Is there anyway I could contact you?
MALAY SUBTITLES Part 1 of 6
00:00
- Hai semua.
00:00
Selamat Tahun Baru, selamat 2021. (muzik lembut)
00:02
Duduk di sini di Washington, DC,
00:04
tepat di luar kawasan yang semakin menjadi zon perang,
00:08
kerana minggu ini ada, semoga,
00:11
pemindahan kuasa secara aman dari seorang pemimpin ke pemimpin yang lain.
00:15
Bagaimanapun, mari kita bercakap mengenai kewartawanan.
00:16
Saya semacam tersandung dalam kewartawanan.
00:18
Pada mulanya saya mahu menjadi seperti sinematografer, pembuat filem.
00:21
Kemudian saya mahu menjadi diplomat dan saya mahu
00:24
sertai Perkhidmatan Luar Negeri untuk Amerika Syarikat.
00:26
Kemudian saya belajar bahawa saya tidak mahu melakukan perkara itu
00:28
dan bahawa saya benar-benar dapat menggabungkan bahan dari kedua-duanya
00:31
untuk melakukan perkara yang disebut kewartawanan,
00:33
menyampaikan jenis topik yang kompleks
00:36
hari ini kepada penonton.
00:39
Saya tidak pergi ke sekolah kewartawanan,
00:40
Saya tidak belajar secara formal ini,
00:42
tetapi saya akhirnya menjadi sebutan wartawan.
00:45
Selama bertahun-tahun saya belajar
00:47
beberapa perkara mengenai kewartawanan
00:49
yang saya ingin kongsi dengan anda.
00:51
- [Narator] Saya menetapkan wartawan untuk mendapatkannya
00:52
semua fakta penting dan untuk menulis cerita.
00:54
Saya juga menugaskan jurugambar berita untuk mengambil gambar.
00:56
Perakam dan jurugambar akan bekerjasama sebagai satu pasukan.
00:59
Kini wartawan mempunyai semua fakta.
01:00
Dia sudah bersedia untuk menulis kisahnya.
01:02
Dia meletakkan fakta yang paling penting dalam beberapa ayat pertama.
01:05
Kemudian dia menambah perincian menarik.
01:07
- Oleh itu mari kita buat senarai di sini. (muzik terang)
01:08
Nombor 1: "Objektiviti adalah mitos."
01:11
Tidak ada objektiviti.
01:14
Saya sering mendapati diri saya dalam perbualan ini
01:16
di mana orang seperti,
01:16
"Sekiranya ada berita objektif dan tidak objektif,
01:20
semua masalah kita di media akan hilang. "
01:22
Itu idea yang sangat menarik, tetapi semakin saya melakukan ini,
01:27
semakin saya sedar bahawa objektiviti bukanlah satu perkara,
01:31
itu teori.
01:31
Ini bukan perkara sebenar yang boleh anda capai.
01:34
Setiap artikel yang anda baca, setiap video yang anda tonton,
01:37
setiap gambar yang anda lihat dihasilkan oleh seorang manusia
01:41
yang keluar dan mengumpulkan maklumat itu
01:44
dan kemudian memutuskan apa fakta yang perlu dikemukakan di atas kertas.
01:47
Mereka memilih untuk membetulkan masalah ini dengan cara tertentu,
01:49
meninggalkan barang dan memasukkan barang lain.
01:52
Terdapat pilihan di sana.
01:53
Dan pilihan itu adalah produknya
01:55
manusia dan berat sebelah mereka.
01:57
Malah seorang wartawan gambar,
01:59
seseorang yang mengambil gambar untuk surat khabar,
02:01
mungkin jenis kewartawanan yang paling berat sebelah,
02:04
masih tertakluk kepada berat sebelah.
02:06
Cara foto dipotong dan dibingkai,
02:09
dan siapa mereka memutuskan untuk mengambil gambar, dan pukul berapa,
02:12
dan bagaimana mereka memutuskan untuk mendedahkan bingkai itu,
02:14
semua itu adalah pilihan.
02:16
Objektiviti adalah mitos.
02:17
Tetapi apa yang bukan mitos, dan apa yang nyata?
02:19
Dan saya rasa orang macam mana yang boleh dikunjungi
02:21
ketika mereka bercakap mengenai objektiviti, adalah adil.
02:23
Bersikap adil terhadap topik anda, atau subjek anda,
02:26
atau sisi hujah yang lain
02:27
yang anda buat dalam artikel anda.
02:28
Bos lama saya Ezra Klein (muzik lembut)
02:29
dulu membincangkan konsep ini sebagai kemurahan hati.
02:32
Kami, sebagai wartawan keluar dan berkumpul
02:33
banyak maklumat dan fakta mengenai sesuatu perkara,
02:36
dan kemudian kita semacam tanah di suatu tempat
02:38
mengenai apa yang kita fikirkan mengenai topik itu.
02:39
Dan kewartawanan kita, kisah kita,
02:41
akan menggambarkan keputusan itu.
02:43
Tetapi apa yang anda boleh lakukan sebagai wartawan yang adil
02:45
adakah anda boleh bermurah hati ke pihak lain.
02:48
Anda boleh membentangkan versi terbaik
02:50
hujah pihak lain.
02:52
Itu bagi saya adalah kewartawanan yang sihat,
02:54
adalah kemurahan hati ke sisi lain.
02:56
Tetapi objektiviti, ia tidak ada.
03:00
Saya mengalami ini pada musim pertama "Borders"
03:02
semasa saya di Jepun membuat cerita gelembung Korea Utara.
03:06
Saya jelas mempunyai kedudukan dalam cerita itu,
03:08
tetapi pada masa yang sama, saya ingin memberikan versi terbaik,
03:12
versi paling murah hati, dari sudut pandang Korea Utara.
03:16
Dan saya cuba membahagikan keseimbangan itu
03:18
sementara juga jelas dan tegas mengenai fakta.
03:21
Itu adalah keseimbangan yang sukar, tetapi apabila ia dilakukan dengan betul,
03:23
ia menjadikan kewartawanan yang lebih baik.
03:25
Nombor 2: "Banyak wartawan
03:27
menulis untuk rakan sebaya mereka dan bukan untuk khalayak mereka. "
03:30
Ini benar-benar lain (muzik lembut)
03:31
perkara berguna yang saya pelajari dari Ezra Bekerja di "Vox."
03:34
Banyak kewartawanan sukar difahami,
03:36
itu hanya fakta.
03:37
Seperti sekarang saya membaca "Wall Street Journal"
03:39
atau "Washington Post" atau "New York Times,"
03:41
Saya sukar mendapatkan sebilangan bahasa
03:43
dan beberapa perkara yang berlaku,
03:45
terutamanya untuk topik yang saya agak baru.
03:48
Saya selalu merasakan ini.
03:49
Dan selalu mengecewakan, kerana saya suka,
03:51
"Bukankah kalian menulis sehingga saya mengerti?
03:53
Seperti, saya pengguna berita yang berpendidikan ini
