@SwissMontana6 What I and others argue for is objectivity of method. Is it fair. Is it accurate. Are the facts correct. But not pretending that the journalists don't have a point of view or biases. — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

@SwissMontana6 Well, for one, the best journalistic commentary is deeply reported. But more to the point, I'm not saying all journalism should offer opinions. I'm saying journalists are not objective because we are human beings, and hundreds of subjective decisions go into any reporting. — PolitiTweet.org

@ThatDaveMan @XVanFleet Because I'd never abandon the vast majority of Black Americans who can never leave and because my ancestors helped build this country and the highest calling of patriotism is not to flee your country but fight to make it better. What are you talking about? — PolitiTweet.org

Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones

The modern frame of objectivity in newsrooms largely came from these newsrooms being nearly all-white, mostly male, mostly straight. So what has been standardized as objectivity has really been the inability to see the middle-class white gaze as biased like any other. — PolitiTweet.org

Double co-sign @AsteadWH here. Journalism is not neutral. When a reporter covers failings of government or industry, they do so because they believe in and want accountability, they want to protect the public, or vulnerable people. That's a form of activism. — PolitiTweet.org

@RumbleOTPotomac @mkraju @tedbarrettcnn I'm curious why you mentioned the race of murder victims in saying what you think the law does. — PolitiTweet.org

@compoccia The first reason I have can easily be verified by studying the writings and arguments of the time. You clearly haven't studied this history very well, and yet want to determine based on why feels right to you what is subjective and dubious. Have a good one. — PolitiTweet.org

@compoccia Slavery died down in the places that had the least labor intensive agriculture and were therefore less economically reliant on slavery, yes. — PolitiTweet.org
