L or has happened in Japan when I hit me that I decided not to enroll in Journalism. It is a profession without a future doomed to disrepute. The best journalists it now are those who have not followed the race. And when I say best I mean those who are dedicated to spreading the strict truth of what happens in each moment (ie, what journalists should do if you do not waste their time reading Nostradamus) and not create unnecessary panic and contagious and have kindly perpetrating media, including the world's most prestigious newspapers. People who have Tiwtter account on Facebook, and have experienced first hand the tragedy truthfully reported, no fuss rhetorical concessions to the show are those who actually have acted with greater responsibility and restraint, which does not prevent which girt the truth. They did, but without the dose of drama and hysteria that tainted the press. I followed almost every minute in several events online newspapers in Japan, and owners were each more apocalyptic. As I understand it, the goal of journalism is to inform and bring out the truth, but not shouting and spreading both the end of the world, where truth and is reduced to anecdote, to excess, to the tangential.
If journalism does not get the batteries end up being a caricature of itself, a substitute for the magazine El Jueves to which internatuas (because the Internet and no other is the fate of the newspapers) will go to a laugh.
