HISTORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

The Associated Press (AP) got its start in 1846. Today the Press is a conglomeration of thousands of reporters from papers and news media outlets all across the country. The AP issues standards of practice and a code of ethics for reporters and photographers:

 “Always and in all media, we insist on the highest standards of integrity and ethical behavior when we gather and deliver the news. as of 03/25/2021 ASSOCIATED PRESS PHOTOGRAPH COLLECTION, MS409

 That means we abhor inaccuracies, carelessness, bias or distortions.  It means we will not knowingly introduce false information into material intended for publication or broadcast; nor will we alter photo or image content. Quotations must be accurate, and precise.  It means we always strive to identify all the sources of our information, shielding them with anonymity only when they insist upon it and when they provide vital information – not opinion or speculation; when there is no other way to obtain that information; and when we know the source is knowledgeable and reliable.  It means we don’t plagiarize.  It means we avoid behavior or activities that create a conflict of interest and compromise our ability to report the news fairly and accurately, uninfluenced by any person or action.  It means we don’t misidentify or misrepresent ourselves to get a story. When we seek an interview, we identify ourselves as AP journalists.  It means we don’t pay newsmakers for interviews, to take their photographs or to film or record them.  It means we must be fair. Whenever we portray someone in a negative light, we must make a real effort to obtain a response from that person. When mistakes are made, they must be corrected – fully, quickly and ungrudgingly.  And ultimately, it means it is the responsibility of every one of us to ensure that these standards are upheld. Any time a question is raised about any aspect of our work, it should be taken seriously.”
