Though both the right- and left-wing media claim "objectivity" in their reporting of these and other contentious issues, the American public has become increasingly cynical about truth, fact, and reality. In The View From Somewhere, Lewis Raven Wallace dives deep into the history of "objectivity" in journalism and how it's been used to gatekeep and silence marginalized writers as far back as Ida B. Wells. At its core, this is a book about fierce journalists who have pursued truth and transparency and sometimes been punished for it--not just by tyrannical governments but by journalistic institutions themselves. He highlights the stories of journalists who question "objectivity" with sensitivity and passion: Desmond Cole of the Toronto Star; New York Times reporter Linda Greenhouse; Pulitzer Prize-winner Rachel Kadzi Ghansah; Peabody-winning podcaster John Biewen; Guardian correspondent Gary Younge; former Buzzfeed reporter Meredith Talusan; and many others. Wallace also shares his own experiences as a midwestern transgender journalist and activist who was fired from his job as a national reporter for public radio for speaking out against "objectivity" in coverage of Trump and white supremacy. With insightful steps through history, Wallace stresses that journalists have never been mere passive observers--the choices they make reflect worldviews tinted by race, class, gender, and geography. He upholds the centrality of facts and the necessary discipline of verification but argues against the long-held standard of "objective" media coverage that asks journalists to claim they are without bias." -- Publisher's website 650 0 $a Journalism $x Objectivity $z United States. 650 0 $a Journalistic ethics $z United States. 650 0 $a Social movements $x Press coverage $z United States. 650 0 $a Social justice $x Press coverage $z United States. 650 7 $a LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Journalism. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Journalism $x Objectivity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984072 650 7 $a Journalistic ethics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984185 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9780226667430 941 $a 5 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214042158.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317014105.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210807010233.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707014041.0 952 $l PMAX975 $d 20210503152337.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E4E872322DF611EAB868BF0597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
