You convey something that the public either trusts or it does not trust, and it has to do with the content and how you handle the news, but it also just has something to do with your persona.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
An able, disinterested, public-spirited press, with trained intelligence to know the right and courage to do it, can preserve that public virtue without which popular government is a sham and a mockery.
It is scrutiny by the general public that keeps the powerful honest.
I think credibility, irrespective of what you do, if you are in public life, then it is important.
If there's anything that's important to a reporter, it is integrity. It is credibility.
Strange bonds of trust and self-deception tend to grow between journalists and their subjects.
Having been given that public trust, we have a responsibility to share with the public.
I have no business being a journalist. I'm the least, I'm the least - I'm the most trusting, I absolutely make a habit of believing anything that anybody tells me about themselves. I've never had any reason in the world to think that anyone has wanted to harm me, or lie to me. I believe whatever is being sold, most of the time.
The duty of the media is to observe truth and social responsibility.
The press is the hired agent of a monied system, and set up for no other purpose than to tell lies where their interests are involved. One can trust nobody and nothing.
I'm not asking the public to trust me; I'm asking the public to trust themselves.
