ABOUT ME
My name is Kendra Caudill. I am almost 24. I am a mother of two. I have a three-year old daughter and an eleven-month old son. Myself and my two children are much of my motivation to continue my education each day.
I graduated from Eastwood High School in 2004. I then began attending classes at Owens. I have taken a few semesters off in between, and changed my major multiple times.
I finally decided to stick with Journalism. I have two classes left to take at Owens, and then I will finally have my Associates of Art degree. My plan is to transfer to BGSU or UT to obtain my Bachelor's in Journalism.
News is a report delivered in a timely and ethical way to the general public. It covers any important events or information that has happened in the area, nation or the world. It includes information regarding politics, crime, the economy, and many other events that can have an impact anywhere in the world.
I think general news is ethically fit, depending on the type of news it is. A lot of news, information and photography coming out of Hollywood seems manipulated or exaggerated. I think political news is not very manipulated by the press, but it is by the government.
It is definitely not okay to manipulate news photos! Whether the manipulation is good or bad, it's still not right. Manipulation is what makes the general public doubt the authenticity of the stories, and that gives journalists a bad reputation. Overall, bad ethics affects all news reporting, and if it becomes an unfortunate trend, the news would slowly lose popularity and trustworthiness because of its unofficial storytelling.
I believe that a citizen journalist most definitely has control. A citizen journalist can influence the stories that myself, and other citizens are interested in.
If a reporter were to make any mistakes, it is the job of the citizen journalist to catch those mistakes and call them out on it. We have the power to influence them to correct their mistakes, admit to the mistake, and to not make any future mistakes.
