I adhere to the Society of Professional Journalists’ Code of Ethics, which can be found here.
My job as a journalist is to “call ’em as I see ’em,” regardless of whom I might offend, I consider it my duty to be as fair as and objective as possible in covering a story. That doesn’t mean I won’t have opinions, but it does mean I will strive to present both sides of an issue and disclose upfront any conflicts I might have.
