Perhaps the largest blind spot many journalists possess -- on both left and right (as well as in the opportunistic, fame and fortune-driven middle -- which, I stress, does not include all of those independent of ready-made ideologies) -- is the lack of ability to imagine they might be wrong. . . not just about their facts, but about the basic schemas through which they read the world. It would be nice to see journalists be more careful about what they commit to. That would be a good first step. Itll always only be that, though, until they start to engage in honest self-examination, and then some change (which I suppose for many of those who actually do it, might lead to leaving the profession) thefifthwave.wordpress/2014/12/19/death-of-news-we-all-want-to-save-the-world-edition/
