Former public radio journalist pushes back on ‘objectivity’

April 15, 2020 by Michael O'Connell

On this week’s It’s All Journalism podcast, Producer Amelia Brust talks to Lewis Raven Wallace, a former NPR journalist who lost his job for expressing a political opinion in a blog post. They discuss Wallace’s book, The View From Somewhere: Undoing the Myth of Journalistic Objectivity, and its companion podcast, and whether journalists can ever be — or even should be — truly objective in their reporting.
