How many reporters would turn down a $200,000 bribe?
How many reporters have this much integrity?
Edward Snowden commented on Twitter about The Intercept reporter Elaine Yu, in Hong Kong, and Ethics in journalism. Snowden said, she "turned down a $200,000 bribe seeking to remove three points from her story."
Meanwhile, currently in the United States, the majority of reporters now stay home and plagiarize, especially in Indian country. They steal the work of hard working reporters, and make a quick phone call interview to add to it, to disguise it. They do this to deceive readers into believing they are out covering the news.
Plagiarism now bottom-out standard in national Indian Country news
Don't be fooled by media like Indian Country Today that has relied on stay-at-home plagiarizers for most of the past 10 years. It has wealthy owners and could send reporters out to cover the news, instead of plagiarizing and rewriting others hard work. Indianz is a copy and paste operation. When done without permission, copying and pasting others work is plagiarism. When it is done for years, it is extensive fraud.
Ask the reporters if they go out and cover the news. Ask the reporters if they pay the hard working photographers for the photos they steal from the web.
Ask the newspapers in Indian country how many of their reporters are Native American. There's only a few jobs and many Native American reporters are unemployed. Unfortunately, newspapers like Navajo Times continue to rely heavily on non-Indian reporters in 2016.
Facebook is Road Kill Journalism
Don't be fooled by the scams on Facebook that are stealing others work for ad dollars, like the so-called "Free Thought Project."
Most of the news links now being posted on Facebook are either frauds (not true) or plagiarized from the hard work of real reporters. Look at all the ads on those scam websites.
On Facebook, the scammers steal the most controversial articles, including those articles on tragedies in Indian country.
Many use "click bait" revenue schemes. Each time you click on their scam news titles, they make money.
The parasites and profiteers in the media are no different from the corporate parasites and profiteers. They are opportunists and their goal is to deceive you.
They do it for the money and for the power.

When the casinos bought the news in Indian country
When non-Indians began their schemes to profit from casinos in Indian country, they first changed the name "gambling" to "gaming."
Then the casino industry took control of the national Indian media. By taking control of the national Indian media, the casino industry avoided exposure in Indian country. Two of those forbidden subjects for reporters were the facts on how non-Indian lobbyists became millionaires and billionaires. The movie Casino Jack tells the real life story of this. The other subject forbidden by casino controlled media in Indian country is how gambling addictions are destroying families in Indian country.
Recently, Jacqueline Keeler, Native reporter fired by Indian Country Today, revealed that today Indian Country Today is controlled by a non-Indian editor, a former editor at Playboy magazine.
Keeler's ethics led to her termination.
Today, non-Indian casino lobbyists working for Indian Nations continue to be paid millions, and billions, to sway Congress.
In 2015, Gila River Indian Community in Arizona paid the most to casino lobbyists, $2.9 million, while the Tohono O'odham Nation was close behind, paying lobbyists $2.6 million in 2015. Both sought control of casino dollars south of Phoenix.
Meanwhile at home, Tohono O'odham continue to live desperate for food, roads, housing and even clean water. Besides millions being paid to non-Indian lobbyists by the Tohono O'odham Nation, millions are paid to non-Indian casino firms, non-Indian charities, non-Indian attorneys, and the State of Arizona, which gets a large percentage of Indian casino revenues in the state. All of this money flows out from the tribe's casinos while Tohono O'odham live in need.
