How can a journalist be sure to avoid conflicts of interest?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part of a passage I found that should be helpful to your answer ;)

Avoiding conflict of interest is sometimes easier said than done. Here's an example: Let's say you cover city hall, and over time you get to know the mayor well because he's a big part of your beat. You may even grow to like him and secretly wish for him to be successful as the town's chief executive. There's nothing wrong with that per se, but if your feelings begin to color your coverage of the mayor, or renders you unable to write about him critically when necessary, then clearly there's a conflict of interest — one that must be resolved.

How to Avoid Conflicts of Interest

Here are six ways to avoid such conflicts:

Don't Accept Freebies or Gifts From Sources. People will often try to curry favor with reporters by offering them gifts of various sorts. But taking such freebies opens the reporter up to the charge that he can be bought.

Don't Donate Money to Political or Activist Groups. Many news organizations have rules against this for obvious reasons — it telegraphs where the reporter stands politically and erodes the confidence readers have in the reporter as an impartial observer. Even opinion journalists can get into trouble for giving money to political groups or candidates, as Keith Olbermann did in 2010.

Don't Engage in Political Activity. This goes along with No. 2. Don't attend rallies, wave signs or otherwise publicly lend your support to groups or causes that have a political bent. Non-political charitable work is fine.

Don't Get Too Chummy With the People You Cover. It's important to establish a good working relationship with the sources on your beat. But there's a fine line between a working relationship and a true friendship. If you become best friends with a source you're not likely to cover that source objectively. The best way to avoid such pitfalls? Don't socialize with sources outside of work.

Don't Cover Friends or Family Members. If you have a friend or relative who is in the public spotlight — let's say your sister is a member of the city council — you must recuse yourself from covering that person as a reporter. Readers simply won't believe that you'll be as tough on that person as you are on everyone else — and they'll probably be right.

Avoid Financial Conflicts. If you cover a prominent local company as part of your beat, you shouldn't own any of that company's stock. More broadly, if you cover a certain industry, say, drug companies or computer software makers, then you shouldn't own stock in those kinds of companies.

6x - 4z

Answers

Answer:

Simplifying

(6x + -4z)(6x + 4z) = 0

Multiply (6x + -4z) * (6x + 4z)

(6x * (6x + 4z) + -4z * (6x + 4z)) = 0

((6x * 6x + 4z * 6x) + -4z * (6x + 4z)) = 0

Reorder the terms:

((24xz + 36x2) + -4z * (6x + 4z)) = 0

((24xz + 36x2) + -4z * (6x + 4z)) = 0

(24xz + 36x2 + (6x * -4z + 4z * -4z)) = 0

(24xz + 36x2 + (-24xz + -16z2)) = 0

Reorder the terms:

(24xz + -24xz + 36x2 + -16z2) = 0

Combine like terms: 24xz + -24xz = 0

(0 + 36x2 + -16z2) = 0

(36x2 + -16z2) = 0

Solving

36x2 + -16z2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '16z2' to each side of the equation.

36x2 + -16z2 + 16z2 = 0 + 16z2

Combine like terms: -16z2 + 16z2 = 0

36x2 + 0 = 0 + 16z2

36x2 = 0 + 16z2

Remove the zero:

36x2 = 16z2

Divide each side by '36'.

x2 = 0.4444444444z2

Simplifying

x2 = 0.4444444444z2

Take the square root of each side:

x = {-0.666666667z, 0.666666667z}

Read the speech.

“Ich bin ein Berliner”

by John F. Kennedy

Schöneberger Rathaus, West Berlin, July 1963

Two thousand years ago, two thousand years ago, the proudest boast was "civis Romanus sum." Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is "Ich bin ein Berliner." (I appreciate my interpreter translating my German.)

There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't, what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world.

Let them come to Berlin.

There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future.

Let them come to Berlin.

And there are some who say, in Europe and elsewhere, we can work with the Communists.

Let them come to Berlin.

And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress.

Lass' sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.

Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect. But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in—to prevent them from leaving us….While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist system—for all the world to see—we take no satisfaction in it; for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.

What is true of this city is true of Germany: real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice. In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people….

Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free. When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe. When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades.

All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin.

And, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner."

Lucy is writing about this excerpt from The Code Book. Only a small fraction of the information flowing around the world is securely encrypted, and the remainder is poorly encrypted, or not encrypted at all. This is because the number of Internet users is rapidly increasing, and yet few of these people take adequate precautions in terms of privacy. In turn, this means that national security organizations, law enforcers and anybody else with a curious mind can get their hands on more information than they can cope with. Which of Lucy’s lines best shows that she has made a personal connection to the reading? The author is explaining that much information is not encrypted. The author is explaining that Internet users must be more careful. This book helps me realize that much of my online information is not secure.

Answer:

Explanation:

The answer is C

The line which shows that Lucy has made a personal connection to the reading is that this book helps me realize that much of my online information is not secured.

What was the central idea of "The Code Book"?

The central idea of the book "The Code Book" is to reveal that much of the world's online information is not secured as the number of internet users is rapidly increasing and very few consider or pay attention to take precautions in order to keep their privacy intact.

Lucy relates it personally as via going through this book, she realized that most of her information online is not secured and could be misused for different purposes. The personal connection is built when she relates it to her own privacy and security that reflects her viewpoint on this subject.

Thus, Option C is true.

‘The Death of a Soldier’
Life contracts and death is expected,
As in a season of autumn.

When the wind stops.

Explanation: Hope it helps

Splendid display is the does the word "pomp" mean. “without memorial” is the quote from the text best summarizes the answer to part. Hence, option D and B are correct.

What is the theme of the death of a soldier poem?

The poem examines the futility and suffering of one of history's worst battles. The speaker says that when a soldier is slain, "Life contracts and death is expected, like the leaves in fall". The final, end-stopped line of the first verse is the only one that is a full sentence.

"Death is absolute and without memorial," which appears to be saying that the end is the end and that's that, marks a philosophical change in the poem. According to the reasoning, death is not a life event, contrary to what Wittgenstein claimed. It is useless for humans to attempt to memorialize the event.

Thus, option D and B are correct.

25 points! Brainliest to the first honest opinion! I'm writing a novel and I need to get someones honest opinion on if it's a good start.


Let me tell you a story, starting from the beginning.


"No no no no no no no!" Winter raced through he woods trying to find a safe place to hide.


There was no place to hide. She was alone.


She couldn't turn back, because behind her was a killer. A killer who had slaughtered her entire family, and is now after her. She is scared, hurt and desperately trying to get away. Not only had the killer murdered her family, the killer was a demon, a demon who was once her lover.


He promised her love, love beyond anything that her world can offer. But as time passed, she realized how much of a monster he was. His true sadistic nature revealed itself, and she broke up with him. He would not take that. He loved her, and he was insane, so he promised her he would be back, and he would destroy everyone she ever loved. He was going to give her a fate worse than death, by sending her somewhere she could never escape, somewhere that is completely inhuman. He was sending her to a practical hell, and she had no idea as to where or what it was.


So there I was, running for my life from the man who trapped me and promised me eternal suffering. I know i'm not going to escape but I have to try. I just have to. There's no way I can face what he has in mind, not after all he's done to me in the past. I can only imagine the horrors he had in store for me in this hell he plans to send me to.


I stop and hide in a hollowed out tree. I know i'm probably not safe there, but I just sit there and wait. I'm only human, so you can't blame me for wanting to feel safe in an enclosed space, and I can only run for so long.


"Winter~ Come on out my snowflake, I'm not going to hurt you, I just want to see you" I could hear his voice echoing, his voice alone sent shivers through me. He sounds like a psychopath, let me rephrase that, he is a psycho.


"WINTER! I know you're hiding, i can't hear your footsteps anymore." He was close "Come. out. now." My hear rate increased ten times over as I heard him come closer and closer. Then i saw him, he was right in front of me, i didn't know if he could see me, but i assumed he did considering how he yanked me out by my arm.


He held my arms tight and just smiled at me. I stared in his eyes, mine full of fear. I couldn't move, there was nothing I could do. so he dragged me back to my house, the same house that he turned to a slaughterhouse for my family.
