SPJ Code of ethics article summary Reflection Journal

The article spj code of ethics mostly speaks about how to be a better journalist and focuses on things that you should not do as a journalist.

Firstly, this article speaks about information that you put on your newsletter, newspaper, and articles etc.It explains that you should verify that the information you use is correct and exact and that you are responsible for the information you give out.You should not summarize information because that most likely leaves out important information.You should also, check if the source is reliable and accurate since the information that you are giving out should be accurate as well. One, more thing, avoid stereotyping at all costs since that can alter they way you write the article and provide the evidence.

Do not write about things that put the readers and the public to discomfort. Show compassion and when speaking about things such as crimes and personal things, be very sensitive about it since that can put the reader in discomfort.

Do not participate in conflicts of your interest, refuse gifts or other forms of special treatment and avoid paying for information. Do not advertise when writing content.

Journalists should correct information that they know they got wrong and respond to feedback in a respectful manner.

Overall I think the article is instructions on how to be a better journalist and it basically a guide for journalists.
