In major TV, radio and newspa pers there is advocacy journal ism at every turn.” Wiley said the educational system is part of the problem of why journalists are losing their objectivity. He made the point that knowledge and experience are essential for reporters to be good at their jobs. “Advocacy journalists cover the news so that they change the image of reality," Wiley said. “If you manipulate news, you change history.” Wiley said much of the his tory students are taught today is factually wrong because the media covered it wrong when it happened. “We have a failing society.” Wiley said. “Young people are not being taught things by adults. When you have an uned ucated public, it makes it easier to manipulate people.” Wiley also said thul society /’s “barraged by misinformation.” Wiley said journalists should not glorify themselves. It is the journalists' job to give the public facts, not opinions. Journalists should gain knowledge to do their job right, he said. “We have reporters who don’t know how to write or spell in some cases. Get knowl edge if you're going to be a reporter or anything else,” Wiley said. Correction In Wednesday's Page 1A story "Texas sMi strengthen health eii4| programs."
