1.Journalists are not lawyers in a court of law trying to prove a case or activists campaigning for a cause. Our job is to seek the truth no matter what and follow the facts wherever they lead us regardless of political outcomes or consequences.
2.It is not the role of a journalist to decide what people should think. Our duty is to search for the whole truth and communicate accurately and honestly so the audience or reader can make up their own mind.
3.Thou shalt not mislead, deceive or lie…to yourself or to the public.
4.Question everything. Only the truth stands up to questioning.
5.Two first-hand sources are the holy grail - always better than indirect or single sources.
6.Be as skeptical of those you like and agree with as you are of those you neither like nor trust.
7.Opinion and analysis have a worthy place in journalism but are not fact and should not be presented as such.
8.Never underestimate the audience. People are not dumb - despite what many in the media think and lack of familiarity with a subject should not be confused with stupidity.
9.Be honest with yourself and aware of your own bias. No one is immune.
10.Anonymity has an important place in protecting sources for valid reasons. It should not be used as cover for political, corrupt or nefarious purposes and it is up to us to be guardians of our craft.
Without integrity and basic principles that protect us from our own opinions and bias, journalism is reduced to a tool of information warfare and little more. Out of the ashes, propaganda and disinformation rise to dominate the media landscape, bury the truth and threaten us all. Social media, podcasts & independent journalists are not immune.

Many people ask the same question: Why don’t trafficking victims just leave?
According to anti-human trafficking advocate Jacquelyn Aluotto, traffickers use a powerful psychological weapon known as trauma bonding.
Through manipulation, abuse, fear, isolation, and moments of false affection, traffickers create an unhealthy emotional attachment that can become incredibly difficult to break. Victims are often groomed to believe the abuse is their fault and cling to the hope that the trafficker will become the person they once pretended to be.
Even after escaping, many victims continue living in fear, constantly wondering what their trafficker is doing or what they might do next.
This isn’t weakness. It’s psychological conditioning.
In Episode 82 of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Lara and Jacquelyn discuss trauma bonding, coercive control, grooming tactics, forced criminality, child exploitation, modern slavery, and the psychological manipulation...
CRIMINAL RECORDS KEEP VICTIMS FROM ESCAPING

Jacquelyn Aluotto explains how traffickers often force victims into criminal activity as a method of control. By saddling victims with drug charges, robbery charges, assault charges, or other criminal records, traffickers make it harder for them to find legitimate work, rebuild their lives, or be believed when they come forward for help.
Aluotto describes how victims are often pressured to take the blame for drugs, weapons, hotel rooms, and other crimes connected to trafficking operations, while the traffickers remain hidden. The result is a cycle of shame, silence, and dependency that keeps victims trapped and protects those exploiting them.
In this episode of Going Rogue with Lara Logan, Jackie shares firsthand insights from decades of investigating and combating child exploitation. The conversation explores how trafficking networks operate, the vulnerabilities within foster care systems, the role of ...

🚨 BREAKING: Newly released internal DOJ emails appear to show that even career attorneys raised serious concerns about the Garland Memo targeting parents who spoke out at school board meetings.
According to the emails, DOJ officials warned there was no clear federal interest, questioned the legal basis for the effort, and expressed concern that the Department could be perceived as becoming “the threats police.” Yet the initiative moved forward anyway.
For years, Americans who questioned this memo were dismissed or attacked. Now the DOJ’s own internal communications reveal that some of the strongest objections came from inside the Department itself.
Government power should never be used to intimidate, silence, or target citizens for exercising their constitutional rights.
The American people deserve accountability, transparency, and equal justice under the law.
