Journalistic Integrity

     Journalism- to write, photograph, or report in news, magazines, or T.V. Integrity- to be honest, pure, and a good faith. Journalistic integrity is being honest in your writing. You don't plagiarise, you don't get off topic, and most importantly you are truthful in every story.

     This is very important in journalism because if you share something that's false, people would be spreading lies. This could cause you your career and possibly someone else's. You also want to be honest because no one likes liars, right? And if you feel that this is your true passion, you should always take pride in your work or have a passion for accuracy.

     In conclusion, I will use these definitions and life lessons in my journalism and my writing. I hope you will too. And you don't even have to be a journalist to follow these guidelines. You can be a writer or just a regular, average student. Just remember integrity-to be honest, pure, and a good faith.
