An achievement of this and other great Washington journalists is helping the world see who is on each side in major disputes. Like in the dispute between (a) terrorists who fired explosive missiles that killed Israeli women and children, and (b) Israelis who were bombed and killed by terrorists, journalists revealed that a Unilever division boycotted the Israeli side but not the terrorist side.
We can judge whether consumers who buy Unilever’s Ben & Jerry’s ice cream or Unilever’s Hellman’s mayonnaise or another Unilever product are helping the Unilever and terrorist side. Also whether helping Unilever and the terrorist side are stores that sell Unilever products.
Great journalists help the public recognize not just what is the news but also what can I DO to influence the OUTCOME of the news.
Corporate polluters, discriminators and other bad guys may be deterred by great journalists from harming the public. Even while we in PR defend corporate clients who are attacked, we can be glad that great journalists expose companies that should perhaps be more motivated by morality and less by the chance to try winning popularity and making an extra buck.
