The benefits of becoming a journalist

![The best way for journalists to head off accusations about "fake news" is to be forthright and transparent about the newsgathering process. Readers should be told who owns a news medium, where the medium gets its money, who the editors are, and what the editorial aims of the organization are. Stories should be thoroughly sourced, with the sources identified by name whenever possible. Claims about "fake news" should be answered with documented, verifiable facts. News media should be open to criticism, but willing to answer criticism vigorously when warranted.
