The central theme that I have learned this semester as a journalist is to always write the truth, and tell the readers what they deserve to know. All the President's Men was another example of what good journalism is, and how it is essential that the truth is always printed.
Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward knew what was at stake with the information they were discovering, but they still printed their story. I've seen this movie many times, and done research on the Watergate Scandal, but watching the movie as a journalist put a new perspective on reporting. Being a journalist is a struggle, but those journalists that see past the hardship and always seek the truth, are the type of journalists I want to become.
