                1. To be clear, though I am no longer a reporter I *do* think our president is a white supremacist and I'm a-ok with that being on the record as an observation I have come to via facts, b/c I don't consider it to be an opinion nbcnews.com/news/all/temptations-twitter-why-social-media-still-minefield-journalists-n922786

                Like hey-o, this isn't a bias, I just observe someone doing things white supremacists do, supporting white supremacists by saying some of them are good people, and encouraging racism in action and law and I feel pretty secure in saying these are enough facts to support the theory

              That said: our readers know we have biases and trying to hide them and pretend we're impartial perfect judges is a dumb idea and bad faith and bad journalism. So I will also state that as an imperfect biased human I'm willing to see proof otherwise.

            Being a good journalist isn't 'not having a bias' it is 'having a bias and actively examining it, challenging it, doing research and drawing conclusions based on the facts'

          People who believe they don't have biases are just programming their privileges and experiences into their coverage *without examining them* and we all see where that goes.

        PS: Constantly recognizing & examining your biases and doing the hard work of challenging them yourself and being willing to be wrong isn't just good journalism -- it's being a good citizen and a good person. What makes a good journalist is doing so in public and showing the work

      Ironically this is one of the reasons I love Twitter & don't delete the archive of my work. It stands as a record of all the things I've said, believed and perhaps changed my mind about. To fear that past is to be dishonest about who I am and how I arrived in this place and time.

    None of this has an impact on editorial anything anywhere anymore, so I guess you could say 'easier said than done' though *shrugz*
