Do all you J students/careerpeople really believe this?? I've taken a couple media ethics courses here at the U. of Missouri-Columbia J school, and I'm not sure I agree. I'd say the people in the newspaper industry are probably the best example of journalistic integrity. Now the cable channel, FOXnews? Ever since they showed up at an airport on 9/11 and told the people waiting at the gate that the plane crashed, I have ZERO respect for them.
