"I’m an explorer...I like to find out!" - Richard Feynman
Nobel Prize winning physicist, gifted story-teller and adventurer. Quote from the great 1981 video from BBC Horizon/PBS Nova, 'THE PLEASURE OF FINDING THINGS OUT - Richard Feynman Interview', which Professor Sir Harry Kroto, the Nobel Prize for Chemistry winner called, “...the best science program I have ever seen. This is not just my opinion – it is also the opinion of many of the best scientists that I know who have seen the program... It should be mandatory viewing for all students whether they be science or arts students.” [http://www.ritholtz.com/blog/2012/02/richard-feynman-the-pleasure-of-fnding-things-out/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheBigPicture+%28The+Big+Picture%29 ]

[Quote No.38821] Need Area: Mind > Learn
"[Humans are born with the capacity and inalienable right to make decisions...in fact we are choice-determined organisms. The only way those choices have any reasonable hope to be in the best interests of the individual making the choices is if the information they base their decisions on is true. To that end the media and journalism, often called 'The Fourth Estate', in particular, whether on the web, on television or radio, in newspapers or books, etc., has a very critical role to play, especially in democracies where the citizen's decisions about voting power, over themselves and others, to representatives is the crux of the system. Therefore fairness, honesty and clarity in news investigation and reporting is as essential and serious as it is in science or law. To that end it behooves members of that profession to fulfill this duty to the individual and the community with the utmost energy and dedication, even beyond the letter of the law where significant public interest or risk of substantial harm to people demands it. For example, the Australian Journalists' Association's CODE OF ETHICS states:]
Respect for truth and the public's right to information are fundamental principles of journalism. Journalists describe society to itself. They convey information, ideas and opinions, a privileged role. They search, disclose, record, question, entertain, suggest and remember. They inform citizens and animate democracy. They give a practical form to freedom of expression. Many journalists work in private enterprise, but all have these public responsibilities. They scrutinise power, but also exercise it, and should be accountable. Accountability engenders trust. Without trust, journalists do not fulfil their public responsibilities...members...commit themselves to
-Honesty;
-Fairness;
-Independence;
-Respect for the rights of others; ...
" - Australian Journalists' Association
Members of the Australian Journalists' Association, a division of a trade union called the Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA), are required to follow a code of ethics. This quote is part of the introduction to that code of ethics. The whole code can be found at http://www.australian-news.com.au/codethics.htm
