indisputable importance in social participation is the journalism in recent years. It has become the "voice" of people who suffer, and by weak institutions, "referring to" a lot of problems you can not solve.
What is expected of journalists is to be faithful to our readers and listeners, loyal to our public commitment and no hidden commitments. Whatever the ideological perspective, the commitment doctrinal, philosophical or religious what we are asked, in all cases, accuracy in reporting. No journalist can distort reality, must be convinced that is serving the truth.
Argentine journalism journalism historically was born committed, principled and political currents. Nineteenth-century newspapers were publishing that reflect such doctrinaire adherence to a particular political ideology or a specific principle. Newspapers were doctrinal, combat, in most cases.
In the twentieth century the major dailies first appear to emphasize the information service far more than the expression of an opinion, but still reserved in their respective editorial columns, the right, so to speak, to express their views, their views compromised. The concept of honesty
information, journalism ethics and faithfulness to the truth that must govern the life of journalist, is a fixed concept, which should enlighten like a beacon. Attitudes are a priority in the reporting year.
The present century with the new realities of neoliberalism, globalization, exclusion, media culture and new forms of citizenship, raises new questions, facing the challenge to commit ourselves to building a fairer society solidarity.
The existence of marginalized, excluded and poor, we're very visible reality of injustice and sin in our society. This reality is diametrically opposed to what it means to communication. It then shows the "confinement" of those who have been isolated and manipulated, without the ability to share or participate.
The journalist has to help with your complaint and your ad to create a mutually supportive. You can not give it up, although this service is in bold, and often is a service of heroism.
To reach this ideal is to have "passion for humanity." From this awareness comes solidarity.
Without harbor feelings of believing Messianic solve all the complex problems of reality, we must be aware of the responsibility for our mission, both constructors and victims of the realities that question.
is there, when we become "prophets" who, seeing and questioning the reality, we see hopeful future for the commitment step by step we assume in the present.
In a world where there is no hope, no reason to be supportive. If the world is sinking, then it seems legitimate to "every man for himself." A world that shows every time there is no reason for hope is a world that is just a reality of lack of solidarity. The two things go together, because without hope, what is the point being solidarity?
Communication solidarity today should be, above all a prophetic communication. We have to give visibility to the world of "exclusion." This is not to cause "sensitivity" but strengthen attitudes "solidarity."
As cultural workers, communicators, we must promote the value of solidarity, embodied in the attitudes and principles of solidarity, the rest of society. Give visibility in our culture, provide a "value" and this is to strengthen a cultural process.
It is therefore important that everything that has value "solidarity" may have space in the media: people, projects, articles, opinions, actions ... A communication
solidarity will be fundamentally pluralistic recognize the value of minorities with their own attitude showing respect to other construction and social wealth.
In his World Day of Peace 1998, Pope John Paul II, said: "We can no longer tolerate a world in which they live next to the wealthy and the wretched, needy lacking even the essentials and people shamelessly wasteful what others desperately need. "
How journalists can:
promote and foster communication into and out of the huge sector of the excluded, to make them all hopeful spirit among them and make their voices heard to demand justice. Advertise
and show all the positive things in the world: from a Mother Teresa to a teacher in middle of the forest of Santiago del Estero.
Defend the right to life of the unborn and also defend the right to life which already has but lost every day, plagued by unemployment, hunger, disease, despair. Report
everything that opposes the right to peace, even if it costs more than a headache and, in some cases, even life itself.
not make the game and knowing how to be voracious consumerism, with our lives and our words, communicators of an austere form of life and solidarity.
contribute with all our strength for everyone from the most powerful political and economically, to the most poor and marginalized, know that everyone has a responsibility commensurate with their status, to work actively for the good of his brother.
This is our challenge in the early stages of the millennium is born.
Journalists who are played by live a supportive communication, truth and hope, as a compromise, such as law, as a passion for humanity ...
Happy day!
