I agree that Journalism is a key part to the American democracy. The free flow of ideas and information is key to any democracy. Newspapers and journalists play a huge part in maintaining this democratic right.
The Bill Moyer report of journalist of misrepresenting, fabricating, and not being thorough in reporting of the news is appalling. Doing that, they violated their responsibility of truth seeking which is an atrocity to all citizens. It is hard to live up to the idea of being completely objective but to be down right malicious in reporting or to flat out lie is unthinkable.
Journalists representing newspapers or any other media should focus on getting the story right and should never twist it for any reason. That's the unspoken oath you take when becoming such a key player in a democratic society.
