JRN 250 Assignment H: Current Event

Article Title: Trust in Media Returns to an All- Time Low: is Anyone Suprised?
I picked this article becasue like what this article goes into detail about I feel that we can really improve peoples trust in the media which is currently at and all time low and used to be the only thing people could trust in with the corrupt governements of the past.
Out of all the recent current events in the news during this course the thing that strikes me the most is what is currently in the news, Baltimore and Freddie Gray because people are past the point of how the whole ordeal happened and only focused on how much they hate police officers, I still don't know if Freddie had previous heath issues, why he was getting arrested in the first place, if he was in a recent car accident and if any of the police officers involved in the whole thing have a previous violent record. To me these things seem very important and no one has answered them. This just solidify's the lack of trust in the media, they should be reporting the most important information not whipping up a flashy article on the biggest and on trend news.
As a social media strategist my approach to the media is going to be to get all the facts, the be a PR specialist in my field and to be as transparent and honest to the public as a possible can be/ am allowed to be.
