Journalists,journalism educators, and journalism scholars all take different pathways in thinking pro- ductively about the subject, and the effort to define journalism consequently goes in various directions. Naming, labeling, evaluating, and critiquing journal- ism and journalistic practice reflect the populations from which individuals come, the type of news work, medium, and technology being referenced, and the relevant historical time period and geographical setting. No wonder, then, that the distinguished broadcast journalist Daniel Schorr noted that reporting was not only a livelihood for him but"a frame of mind.'" By extension,journalism as a frame of mind varies from individual to individual. Thinking aboutJournalism The various terms of news, the press, the news media, and information and communi- cation themselves suggestprofound differencesin what individuals consider jour- nalism to mean and what expectations they have of journalists.
