BY IDRIS KATIB When news-writing and news-reporting were introduced to me a decade and a half ago in my early days as a fresher in mass communication, I never knew the concept of objectivity in media reports was such a complex and controversial one. Then we used to enjoy the mannerisms of our lecturer who used to sing the song of the inverted pyramid structure of news-writing into our ears and even demonstrate on the board, starting with the lead, the body and the details.
Then I used to know that the term "objectivity" was one of the elements and characteristics of a news-story. But as I climbed to the upper ladder of my educational career, I began to know the more the subtle aspects of the concept. In my 300 level, the term 'journalistic objectivity ' was introduced by another revered lecturer in the department as a topic on its own.

Questioning Journalistic Objectivity. Journalism, as we've known it, has been mourned deeply over the last few years.
The Internet has changed everything. "Citizen journalism," a phrase that still inspires dirty looks at most journalism conferences, has blurred the lines between objectivity and subjectivity, paid and unpaid labor, news and opinion. It gives veteran journalists agita to imagine totally untrained people messing around in their exclusive, albeit hardscrabble, club.
With all this reshaping and shifting of our industry, all this talk about changing financial models and publishing structures, now is an opportune time to question one of the field's most defended values: objectivity.

Rethinking Journalism Ethics, Objectivity in the Age of Social Media. In response to the rapidly changing media environment, many schools and academic programs are offering novel approaches to journalism education.
This seismic change creates tensions within programs, especially when it comes to how to teach ethics for this increasingly mixed media. In an earlier column, I put forward some principles for teaching ethics amid this media revolution. But these principles do not address some specific problems. Whither objectivity? Today, students don’t just learn how to report straight news on deadline. Schools of journalism have always taught, to some extent, what is called “opinion journalism,” such as learning to write an editorial that supports a candidate for political office. One problem is whether the ideal of journalistic objectivity should be emphasized in these changing curricula. The new journalism tends to be more personal.
