Time Magazine has named journalists persons of the year.  It has been a tough time for them with a war on media from multiple sources, not the least of which is the White House.  There is an insidious attempt to derogate any fact that is not compatible with one’s image of himself or one’s personal belief.  Good journalism is good PR.  It is reporters and editors striving to do their jobs in the best way possible — finding and reporting facts of events and individuals. Their success brings credibility to them and to their media.  Boot-licking articles help no one but those in power who want to see themselves portrayed in the best light possible.  The world has taken a swing to strong, conservative leaders, nationalists who don’t like to see negative stories about themselves.  Journalism’s job has been made more difficult, if not impossible in some countries where reporters literally lay their lives on the line.  They deserve recognition for the work they are doing.  One wishes it weren’t so difficult.
