Journalism Philosophy

[edit]

I include fact claims made by sources of all biases unless there is a contradiction in claims being made in which case I have to pick a side according to my own biases.

Fact claims left unchallenged by contradictory claims will be included.

I use sources listed in Wikipedia:Deprecated sources.

The reliability of a source shouldn't be determined democratically or by dismissiveness. It's better to be scrupulous of claims made by any source on an claim by claim basis.

Picking a side

[edit]

I should formalize a methodology for picking a side for situations where contradictory claims are being made by two sources. The methodology is informed by my social and political biases.
