If Bernie Bernstein Existed, He’d Be a Terrible Journalist<br />It would be like a plumber saying “we will not fully fix the leak in your pipe.”<br />“A journalist worried about his or her reputation would only want to put verified or supported claims in a story<br />carrying their names,” said Andrew Seaman, the ethics chair for the Society of Professional Journalists.<br />“We are shocked and appalled that anyone would stoop to this level to discredit real journalism.”<br />It should be noted that many people hear the heavily accented voice saying “Lenny Bernstein,” which is the name of a health reporter at the paper.<br />“Grown-up journalists don’t pay for news,” said Chris Roberts, an associate professor of journalism at the University of Alabama.
