It happened at the\u00a0<span class=\"CharOverride-34\">Daily Commercial<\/span>, based in Leesburg, Florida, a conservative-leaning area of the state with a lot of affluent retirees. The editors published an open letter to readers in which they\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailycommercial.com\/news\/20161023\/media-election-and-bias\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\">they said:<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u201cThis is not an endorsement of Trump, a candidate whose brutish, sometimes childish antics are responsible for his sizable deficit in the polls. Rather, it is a recognition that you, the voter, deserve better than we in the media have given you. You deserve a more balanced approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\">Reporting the news and serving readers are first principles in journalism, bedrock for sound practice. But protecting against criticism is not like that at all. It has far less legitimacy, especially when the criticism itself has thin legitimacy. This is how the phrase\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/prospect.org\/article\/working-refs-continues-work\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\">\u201cworking the refs\u201d<\/span><\/a>\u00a0got started. Political actors try to influence judgment calls by screeching about bias, whether the charge is warranted or not.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">My favourite description of \u201cprotecting ourselves against criticism\u201d comes from a former reporter for the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR CharOverride-34\">Washington Post<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">, Paul Taylor, in his 1990 book about election coverage:\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"CharOverride-34\">See How They Run<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">. I have quoted it many times:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">\u201cSometimes I worry that my squeamishness about making sharp judgments, pro or con, makes me unfit for the slam-bang world of daily journalism. Other times I conclude that it makes me ideally suited for newspapering\u2013 certainly for the rigors and conventions of modern \u2018objective\u2019 journalism. For I can dispose of my dilemmas by writing stories straight down the middle. I can search for the halfway point between the best and the worst that might be said about someone (or some policy or idea) and write my story in that fair-minded place. By aiming for the golden mean, I probably land near the best approximation of truth more often than if I were guided by any other set of compasses \u2013 partisan, ideological, psychological, whatever\u2026 Yes, I am seeking truth. But I\u2019m also seeking refuge. I\u2019m taking a pass on the toughest calls I face.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\">I am seeking truth. But I\u2019m also seeking refuge.<span class=\"REGULAR\">\u00a0What if it\u2019s not possible to do both? This is what the editors of the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR CharOverride-34\">Daily Commercial<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">\u00a0failed to ask themselves. And this is what the movement for Trump forced journalists everywhere in the US\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">to realize, even if word never reached Leesburg, Florida.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\">Earlier in the campaign, Dean Baquet, editor of the\u00a0<span class=\"ITALIC\">New York Times<\/span>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.niemanlab.org\/2016\/10\/the-new-york-times-dean-baquet-on-calling-out-lies-embracing-video-and-building-a-more-digital-newsroom\/\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\">said<\/span><\/a>\u00a0Donald Trump had changed journalism.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">\u201cI was either editor or managing editor of the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ITALIC\">L.A. Times<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">\u00a0during the Swift Boat incident. Newspapers did not know \u2014 we did not quite know how to do it. I remember struggling with the reporter, Jim Rainey, who covers the media now, trying to get him to write the paragraph that laid out why the Swift Boat allegation was false\u2026 We didn\u2019t know how to write the paragraph that said, \u201cThis is just false\u2026\u201d We struggle with that. I think that Trump has ended that struggle.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">You may wonder: in 1990, in 2004, or in 2016 how could it be hard to say in a news report \u201cthis is false\u201d when the reporter and the editor are both persuaded that it is false? I have an answer for you. Alongside the production of news, reporters and editors in the mainstream press have for a long time been engaged in another manufacture: persuading us of their own innocence, especially when it comes to a contested election.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\">But as Dean Baquet declared: \u201cTrump has ended that struggle.\u201d His point is not that it\u2019s suddenly \u201cokay\u201d to take sides. Trump ended the struggle in this sense: by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/in-theory\/wp\/2016\/07\/13\/donald-trump-is-crashing-the-system-journalists-need-to-build-a-new-one\/\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\">openly trashing<\/span><\/a>\u00a0the norms of American politics, by flooding the campaign with wave after wave of provable falsehood, by convincing his supporters to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/video\/us\/politics\/100000004726496\/in-the-media-pen-at-a-trump-rally.html\"><span class=\"Hyperlink\">despise and mistrust<\/span><\/a>\u00a0the press, Trump made it a certainty that when honest journalism was done about him it also worked against him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">For journalists this destroyed the illusion of innocence: just by doing your job you were undoing Trump\u2026\u00a0<\/span>unless<span class=\"REGULAR\">\u00a0he could turn his<a id=\"_idTextAnchor002\"><\/a>\u00a0portion of the electorate against you so decisively that the very possibility that you may be trying to do an honest job was rejected out of hand. And then the disaster became complete, for now by doing your job (applying scrutiny, checking facts) you were actually helping Trump, confirming among his most committed supporters the hateful image of a media elite trying to rig the election.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"Basic-Paragraph-US\"><span class=\"REGULAR\">Either way the production of innocence failed. In this vexing situation the\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ITALIC\">Daily Commercial<\/span><span class=\"REGULAR\">\u00a0of Leesburg, Florida published its open letter to readers. Unable to think it through clearly, the editors surrendered their right to speak truth to power (in this case audience power) and sold out their colleagues in the American press.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":21,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-73","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.1 -
