Kevin Sites wins 2005 Payne Award for
Ethics in Journalism

Kevin Sites wins 2005 Payne Award for
Ethics in Journalism 04/13/2005 03:52 AM
Xeni Jardin: I'm very happy to blog the news that Kevin Sites, for whom I have endless respect and admiration, has been honored with a Payne Award for Ethics in Journalism. Bravo, and a huge congratulations, Kevin!

At a time when studies show the credibility of the media in steady decline and sensational stories make headline news, there are journalists and news organizations whose ethical decision-making processes set new standards for the keepers of the public trust. The 2005 Payne Awards for Ethics in Journalism will honor The Denver Post, freelance journalist Kevin Sites, and Arizona State’s independent student newspaper The State Press for exemplifying the highest standards of their profession in the face of political or economic pressures.(...)
Kevin Sites, a freelance photojournalist for NBC and military pool reporter, is the Payne Awards’ professional winner for his “courage, deliberate thinking and outreach” after filming a U.S. soldier killing an unarmed Iraqi man. Sites, an experienced war reporter, shared the videotape with the military, then worked with NBC to create a well-nuanced story that aired 48 hours after the incident. As was required, the footage was also given to others in his pool. When he became a lightning rod for those reacting to the story and for foreign journalists using the footage without context, he responded by using a web blog (www.kevinsites.net) to explain his decision and its reasoning to the public. The judges felt the blog and reactions to it added a new dimension to the story.

Winners will be honored in a ceremony on May 12 at the University of Oregon School of Journalism and Communication. Link to award info, and Link to Kevin's blog.

Chuck Talk writes "I have recently been reading commentary from writers who seem to be under the impression that freedom is a bad thing. They have chosen to place their collective blinders on and tow the party line by using the tried and tiresome argument that free software cannot succeed. It s a simple-minded exercise in prevarication, and they have performed a great disservice to their readers by choosing to ignore the meaning of free in the sense of free software. It refers to freedom, not price.

From artbook publisher extraordinaire Taschen comes this oversized collection of Chinese Propaganda Posters, faithfully reproduced and annotated with scholarly essays. I couldn't put this down in the bookstore -- it was only the fact that I've already got thousands of books in storage and not a lot of room in my suitcase that stopped me from buying it. Link

Anti-Porn hillbilly propaganda song --
"Please Don't Go Topless, Mother"

Anti-Porn hillbilly propaganda song --
"Please Don't Go Topless, Mother" 05/05/2004 11:24 AM

Continuing on our series of posts about anti-porn art, I am proud to present this gem of hillbilly countersmut psy-ops. "Please Don't Go Topless Mother" is a sort of country-western paean to prude pride by Troy Hess. Google doesn't reveal much about Hess, or this song, but the Cliff's Notes version of the plot is basically "four-year-old boy begs his stripper mom to stay home from work, keep her shirt on, and start going to church."

Vintage anti-porn propaganda -- Commie
Terrorist Smutmongers! 05/03/2004 09:31 AM

Following up on what's becoming a series of anti-porn propaganda posts, BoingBoing backlon says, "The excellent (and boy do I mean *excellent*) Prelinger Archives has a couple of films that link 'pornography to the Communist conspiracy and the decline of Western civilization.'"

The short film was sponsored by Charles H. Keating, Jr. (the same banker implicated in the savings-and-loan scandals) as part of his decades-long crusade against porn, and reminds us that "Pornography and 'fun' lead to illegitimate children and hefty financial burden on taxpayers." Almost as much of a burden as S&L bailouts! "Perversion for Profit" also exposes the secret ties between adult entertainment and "homosexuality, lesbianism, violent crime, the Communist conspiracy and Satan."

Tex sez: "It appears that our tax money is being used to spread RNC propaganda.

Go here to this taxpayer-funded site and read at the bottom. These lines are there:

America has a choice: It can continue to grow the economy and create new jobs as the President's policies are doing; or it can raise taxes on American families and small businesses, hurting economic recovery and future job creation.

Now go to this page. Go down to the bottom. In bold in the next to the last paragraph you will read:

America has a choice: It can continue to grow the economy and create new jobs as the President's polices are doing; or it can raise taxes on American families and small businesses, hurting economic recovery and future job creation.

At 8:50 this evening, CJAD, 800 on your AM dial, reported that John Edwards accepted the party nomination and recounted what he said in his speech. Only problem: It's now 9:50 and Edwards has yet to give his speech. Apparently, Canadian Press jumped the gun with the transcript - explicitly embargoed - circulated by the Democratic PR folks, and CJAD ran with it. Not surprisingly, it made the top listing at Google News....

Very important reading for storm-chasing reporters, especially now, as Ivan the Terrible sets its eye on Jamaica, Cuba, and Florida. Found via CapitalWeather. Also check out CaribPundit for Ivan updates and reminiscences of island hurricanes. (Ivan the Terrible? Eye? Get it? Eh? Eh? Yeah, I didn't think it was funny on Fox News either.)
