7. Two or more hyphenated words used as a single adjective- compound adjective.

Explanation:

1. Names a particular person, place, or thing within a general class- <u>proper noun</u>.

A proper noun indicates or names a particular noun and are written using capital letters at the start of the word.    

2. Names a group of more than one person or thing-<u> collective noun</u>.

A collective noun is when a group of nouns are taken together, in a collective sense.  

3. Add the sign of the possessive to the last name-  <u>Joint ownership</u>.

This is used to show the possession or ownership of the thing to the person or owner.

4. Names all persons, places, and things except particular ones- <u>common noun</u>.

A common noun is used for all nouns that are taken in general, not used in a specific manner.  

5. Two or more adjectives that modify the same noun- <u>coordinate adjectives</u>.

A coordinate adjective is used when two or more adjectives are used to modify the same noun in a sentence.  

6. Compares more than two things or actions- <u>superlative degree</u>.

The superlative degree is used to make comparisons between more than two things. Another is the comparative degree that compares two things.  

7. Two or more hyphenated words used as a single adjective- <u>compound adjective</u>.

A compound adjective is when two or more words are used together with a hyphen and describes the noun in the sentence. They act as adjectives in the sentence and since they are made of two or more words, they become compound adjectives.

Answer:

Ethical journalism should be accurate and fair. Journalists should be honest and courageous in gathering, reporting and interpreting information.

Journalists should:

– Take responsibility for the accuracy of their work. Verify information before releasing it. Use original sources whenever possible.

– Remember that neither speed nor format excuses inaccuracy.

– Provide context. Take special care not to misrepresent or oversimplify in promoting, previewing or summarizing a story.

– Gather, update and correct information throughout the life of a news story.

– Be cautious when making promises, but keep the promises they make.

– Identify sources clearly. The public is entitled to as much information as possible to judge the reliability and motivations of sources.

– Consider sources’ motives before promising anonymity. Reserve anonymity for sources who may face danger, retribution or other harm, and have information that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Explain why anonymity was granted.

– Diligently seek subjects of news coverage to allow them to respond to criticism or allegations of wrongdoing.

– Avoid undercover or other surreptitious methods of gathering information unless traditional, open methods will not yield information vital to the public.

– Be vigilant and courageous about holding those with power accountable. Give voice to the voiceless.

– Support the open and civil exchange of views, even views they find repugnant.

– Recognize a special obligation to serve as watchdogs over public affairs and government. Seek to ensure that the public’s business is conducted in the open, and that public records are open to all.

– Provide access to source material when it is relevant and appropriate.

– Boldly tell the story of the diversity and magnitude of the human experience. Seek sources whose voices we seldom hear.

– Avoid stereotyping. Journalists should examine the ways their values and experiences may shape their reporting.

– Label advocacy and commentary.

– Never deliberately distort facts or context, including visual information. Clearly label illustrations and re-enactments.

– Never plagiarize. Always attribute.

Minimize Harm

Ethical journalism treats sources, subjects, colleagues and members of the public as human beings deserving of respect.

Journalists should:

– Balance the public’s need for information against potential harm or discomfort. Pursuit of the news is not a license for arrogance or undue intrusiveness.

– Show compassion for those who may be affected by news coverage. Use heightened sensitivity when dealing with juveniles, victims of sex crimes, and sources or subjects who are inexperienced or unable to give consent. Consider cultural differences in approach and treatment.

– Recognize that legal access to information differs from an ethical justification to publish or broadcast.

– Realize that private people have a greater right to control information about themselves than public figures and others who seek power, influence or attention. Weigh the consequences of publishing or broadcasting personal information.

– Avoid pandering to lurid curiosity, even if others do.

– Balance a suspect’s right to a fair trial with the public’s right to know. Consider the implications of identifying criminal suspects before they face legal charges.

– Consider the long-term implications of the extended reach and permanence of publication. Provide updated and more complete information as appropriate.

Act Independently

The highest and primary obligation of ethical journalism is to serve the public.
