 As a discipline, journalism goes far beyond the production of newspapers and television broadcasts. It requires fundamental training in how to organize our perceptions of the world, how to collect, evaluate and prioritize information. These skills are essential to all of us, not only reporters and editors, if we hope to make responsible choices in our personal and professional lives. They are taking on added importance as the new technologies churn out ever-increasing volumes of data that we must absorb.
