Increased accessibility to the public does not decrease journalistic responsibility. To fill twenty- four hours of news time, news editors must present a variety of stories, although it seems unnatural for every news medium to focus on one sensational scoop—be it a politician’s personal scandal or a murder. At times, journalists seem to fixate on stories they think are popular or will bring ratings needed to maintain advertising support. The news media can fixate on any story as long as it is presented in a fair and accurate manner. News councils can’t tell the networks what stories to cover, but they can make sure the media gets the facts straight.
