Needs: Journos should disclose political, religious affiliations

Akron Beacon Journal
Ombud Mike Needs would like to see reporter bio pages that disclose political and religious affiliations, education background, media experience, active membership in organizations, and any involvement in causes or campaigns that could have any influence on a journalist's news judgment. "Not only that, I'd do the same for any editor involved in news decisions," he writes. More ombud columns:
> Expensive watchdog journalism is at risk as papers make cuts (Bee)
> Strib style discourages use of "alien," "illegal alien" or "illegal" (Strib)
