Olasky is editor-in-chief of World magazine, a syndicated columnist and a professor at the University of Texas at Austin.

Objectivity in journalism faces more questions in the age of new media : Making It Better Objectivity is one of those cardinal principles of journalism which denotes that journalists and media houses should be impartial in their reporting and coverage. There has been a long standing debate on whether journalists and media houses are indeed or can be objective. Many media houses will insist and market themselves as the most of objective newspaper, radio or television station.
