Examples of JOURNALIST in a Sentence

  1. Naser Selmani:

    Just one day in prison for an innocent journalist is a terrible punishment and greatly harms freedom of speech and media freedom.

  2. Steve Krakauer:

    Having enough introspection and humility to step back and say, ‘I'm a journalist, and my audience doesn't trust me,’ would actually go a long way toward recovery. So often the response from the press is to look for reasons the audience distrusts them as some version of the audience's fault – as if it couldn't possibly be earned distrust, but the truth is, with more sources than ever, the establishment press needs to work harder than ever to maintain and grow their audience, and give the readers and viewers a reason to turn the trust factor around.

  3. Steve Daniels:

  4. Orrin Konheim:

    DuVernay, who is African-American, told Entertainment Weekly. I was interested in … a heroine that looked like the girls I grew up with. DuVernay said she identified with some progressive ideas she found in L'Engle's novel. She's a very radical thinker and she embedded her sense of what society should and could be in this piece, and a lot of it I agree with. But does that mean her adaptation will adopt a political tone ? Experts say we shouldn't jump to any conclusions about whatDuVernay’s final film will look like. Freelance journalist Orrin Konheim, who has written for The American Conservative, noted that many films, including The Manchurian Candidate, have been remade with African-American stars. Ava DuVernay’s casting choice seems like a non-issue.

  5. Bryan Fenster:

    He is like this mythical, stereotypical journalist.
