February Topic: Journalism

The inclusion of celebrity or ‘people journalism’ in daily or weekly mainstream broadsheet newspapers is a relatively recent phenomenon that is growing exponentially. With the current economic order being reinforced, is journalism going to allow itself to degenerate into an amoral force that views the reader as a consumer to be seduced and won over? How do journalists view the motivations, the ethical dilemmas and the freedom of expression associated with this new brand of journalism?
