Journalism

well remember the role the journalist Christiane Amanpour took in her reporting of the military conflicts that she was right in the middle of.

She reported the news as they were happening. 

And she then left it to her audience to decide for themselves what they felt about the conflict.

She never opined her morality and values re the combatants and the nature of the conflicts.

Today, especially in CNN, they report, in a sort of way what The Donald is doing; but the reporting journalists cannot desist from opinionating their political take and by implicate extensions their moral evaluations of his actions.

Given that none of them have Doctorals of Divinity in Moral Theology, I do not think it is their job to bias their reporting in this manner. All of them have BA in Broadcasting Journalism . . . and critically NOT from Harvard or Princeton University.
