I can’t believe people still think women are “too emotional” when they become constant victims to fragile masculinity

Someone only has to tell a guy no for him to go from ‘potential date’ to ‘murderer’ in 3.5 seconds!

PSA: journalists aren’t supposed to put names in the headlines if the person isn’t a public figure. It’s not a matter of maliciously not giving credit

[deactivated-blog]

As someone in a journalism course, I can confirm this 100%. It’s like, one of the first things they teach us.

[stankyleg-deactivated2918973]

Why?

[languill]

Because headlines aren’t supposed to be too long and by including a name you’re taking up space that could get people interested in the story.

That’s why public figures names are included because they draw people in, but other people’s names don’t have that recognition

[poemsingreenink]

Thank you! This was starting to drive me insane. Unless you are as well known as Beyoncé your name won’t appear in the headline.

Stop yelling at copy editors!

My personal theory is that all of his stories are true, all talking about the same, bizarre heist.

Things You Don't Comment On:

- someone’s eating habits

- appearance issues that can’t be fixed there and then

- someone else’s “bad” decision if it can’t now be undone

- someone’s laugh or voice

- someone’s “unrealistic” dreams

- someone “not looking their best” in photos

- someone not wanting to do something and trying to subtly avoid it without making a fuss

- anything that you know will make someone self conscious or insecure unnecessarily

Unbiased journalism is not pretending both sides are equally valid. Unbiased journalism is reporting the facts even if those facts include that one side is irredeemably awful. False neutrality is propaganda.

[kiriamaya]

Repeated for emphasis: False neutrality is propaganda.

[letsplaysocialjustice]

if 99 experts say one thing, and 1 expert says another, presenting both sides as equal is misinformation

[madmaudlingoes]

Years ago I went to a lecture by a science journalist, who talked about why so much science reporting is terrible, and this was the crux of his argument. Science reporters aren’t scientists, so they try to be “unbiased” and end up validating bad science in the interest of “giving both sides of the story.” But this is no longer just a problem for science journalists. When the media doesn’t take a stand on what is factual, or at least supported by evidence, it contributes to its own implosion and the destruction of critical thought and democracy. I am not even joking here. False “let’s heard from both sides” neutrality contributes to the idea that there are no facts, only different kinds of spin.
