"Objectivity" in journalism does not mean unbiased, or The Truth.

Simple recipe to follow:

- Show your work.

- Cite your sources.

- Corroborate.

- Sign your name.

- Admit your mistakes.

Voila, you're a journalist.

> Cite your sources.

We're on the Internet. Link your sources or provide them as raw footage. At least it'd eliminate some attempts to modify/exaggerate news like the CNN is doing all the time.
