The news media still protect Americans

I have worked as a journalist and journalism educator for 28 years. I still report and edit, and consume all kinds of news each day — TV, newspapers, magazines, the Web and in whatever form it gets delivered.

I have been a news consumer since childhood. I grew up in a family and with parents who believed that people need to know what’s going on in the world — the world defined very loosely: our neighborhoods, our cities, our states, the U.S. and all other places.
