There is a higher calling — one that rests in an honored realm beyond the ordinary affairs of men.
It is a sacred place — having been erected in the traditions of freedom, and consecrated in the blood of those who have paid the ultimate price in pursuing journalism’s enduring quest for truth.
The Honorable House Of The Fourth Estate being that place in the American experience where the bells of freedom ring loud and clear so that all free men and women shall forever know what matters most to their livelihoods, families, communities and nation.
Credible - Responsible - Probative
Credibility is the foundation for all journalism no matter medium or method of transmission.Relevancy to our livelihoods, families, communities and nation are central to how we define news.
New media journalism is a servant of the people.
Being relevant demands that new media journalism stand-in for our viewers, readers, listeners or visitors and defend the public’s right to know what persons, institutions and governments are doing in the name of free and sovereign citizens.
Experienced and credible new media news services are tenured, qualified and full fledged members of the free press, second to none and equal to all.
Probity, accuracy, balance, provenance, and credibility in journalism are the currency of the realm in earning and maintaining public trust and confidence.

We still do not know who did this or why. And people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts. But make no mistake — we will get to the bottom of this. And we will find out who did this; we’ll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice.

President Obama Speaks On The Explosions In Boston
Megan Slack
April 15, 2013This evening, President Obama made a statement about today’s explosions at the Boston Marathon.
The President explained that he had been briefed by his Homeland Security team, who are continuing to monitor the situation as it unfolds, and had “directed the full resources of the federal government to help state and local authorities protect our people, increase security around the United States as necessary, and investigate what happened.”
“The American people will say a prayer for Boston tonight,” he said. “And Michelle and I send our deepest thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims in the wake of this senseless loss.”
We still do not know who did this or why. And people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts. But make no mistake — we will get to the bottom of this. And we will find out who did this; we’ll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice.
Today is a holiday in Massachusetts — Patriots’ Day. It’s a day that celebrates the free and fiercely independent spirit that this great American city of Boston has reflected from the earliest days of our nation. And it’s a day that draws the world to Boston’s streets in a spirit of friendly competition. Boston is a tough and resilient town. So are its people. I’m supremely confident that Bostonians will pull together, take care of each other, and move forward as one proud city. And as they do, the American people will be with them every single step of the way.
You should anticipate that as we get more information, our teams will provide you briefings. We’re still in the investigation stage at this point. But I just want to reiterate we will find out who did this and we will hold them accountable.
