I tell my students, even if you are an opinion journalist, your opinion should be based on facts.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm a working journalist. I'm interested in all points of view, and I draw conclusions based on facts, not just on opinions.
It's a very complicated issue about when is a fact not a fact in the context of opinions.
Facts and data, rather than opinion, are the two cornerstones of problem solving, and yet they are consistently withheld from the people by American media. We must have facts and data in order to recognize where there is a problem!
In journalism, a fact is just a fact. But in fiction, you have to build your case. It has to be made, step by step.
Facts cannot be replaced by opinion.
Decisions should be based on facts, objectively considered.
Attitudes are more important than facts.
Facts get shares; opinions get shrugs.
But I'm very careful with opinions because I never know what the truth is. When I read what the press says about me, I don't really believe what it says about other people.
In sixth grade, we all had to write this opinion paper. Most wrote about things like why we should be able to chew gum in class - I wrote about why women should receive equal pay.
