In The Invention of Journalism Ethics Stephen Ward argues that, given the current emphasis on interpretation, analysis, and perspective, journalists and the public need a new theory of objectivity. He explores the varied ethical assertions of journalists over the past few centuries, focusing on the changing relationship between journalist and audience. This historical analysis leads to an innovative theory of pragmatic objectivity that enables journalists and the public to recognize and avoid biased and unbalanced reporting. Ward convincingly demonstrates that journalistic objectivity is not a set of absolute standards but the same fallible but reasonable objectivity used for making decisions in other professions and public institutions. 410 0$aMcGill-Queen's studies in the history of ideas ;$v38. 606 $aJournalistic ethics 606 $aJournalism$xObjectivity 606 $aObjectivity 615 0$aJournalistic ethics. 615 0$aJournalism$xObjectivity. 615 0$aObjectivity. 676 $a174/.90704 700 $aWard$b Stephen J.
